Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to fry chicken liver in flour with onions in a frying pan? Letʼs prepare the ingredients. It is better to purchase chilled offal to be sure of the quality and freshness of the chicken liver, as evidenced by the brown color with a burgundy tint, a smooth and shiny surface, and a pleasant sweetish smell. If it is orange, it means the product has been frozen and thawed several times. The smell of ammonia also indicates liver damage.

Step 2

Step 2
If the product was purchased frozen, it is important to defrost the liver correctly. This must be done in the refrigerator at a temperature of +5, then all the taste of the offal will be preserved. We thoroughly wash the chicken liver, trim off excess fat and membranes. Cut the liver into small pieces, rinse again to remove excess blood, dry it with paper towels or place in a colander to drain completely.

Step 3

Step 3
Roll chicken liver in wheat flour.

Step 4

Step 4
Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan and heat it well. Place the cooked chicken liver on the oil. Fry it over medium heat until slightly browned on all sides, stirring it with a spatula.

Step 5

Step 5
Peel the onions and cut them into halves of rings with a knife.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the onions in a frying pan with the liver, add salt and ground black pepper, mix and continue to fry them together. Fry for about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Step 7
Pour water into the pan with the liver and stir. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid and simmer the liver for 10 minutes. During this time, almost all the liquid should evaporate, but the dish should be juicy, so if it seems that the liver has become too dry, you can add a little water and let it boil, then turn off the heat.

Step 8

Step 8
The dish is ready. Serve the liver with onions at the table as a separate dish or with any side dish to your taste. And if you add sour cream or cream to the liver during stewing, the liver will turn out with a delicate sauce. Bon appetit!
