📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Clean the chicken livers by cutting off any connective tissue and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.

2

Peel and slice the onions into thin rings.

3

In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.

4

Dredge the chicken livers in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.

5

In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbly.

6

Add the onions to the skillet and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

7

In the same skillet, add the chicken livers in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through, but still tender inside.

8

Return the onions to the skillet with the chicken livers and stir gently to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.

9

Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley and a splash of lemon juice for brightness.

10

Serve warm with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or rice for a complete meal.
