Chicken Livers
Chicken Livers
Chicken livers are incredibly tasty and are so tender they almost melt in your mouth. Only taking a couple of minutes to cook, they are a great choice for a quick meal and they’re amazingly easy to prepare.
There are many options for serving Chicken Livers. They’re great as a snack eaten with flat bread. Alternatively they can be served as a meal accompanied by rice and perhaps a salad. At the same time they are a great choice served as a side dish as part of a mezze.
If you’re not sure where to buy them, you generally find them in plastic pots in the Frozen section at the supermarket.
It’s also worth mentioning that they are much more affordable than most meats.
