Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken livers
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup gluten-free cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups vegetable oil
Instructions
Rinse and clean the chicken livers, removing any sinew or connective tissue. Pat them dry with paper towels.
In a medium bowl, pour the buttermilk over the chicken livers, ensuring they are fully submerged. Allow them to soak for at least 10 minutes to help tenderize.
In a separate shallow bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the breading.
Remove the livers from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and dredge them in the flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Set aside on a platter.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C) or until a small piece of flour sizzles when dropped in.
Carefully add the breaded chicken livers to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry each batch for about 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the fried livers with a slotted spoon and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve hot and enjoy your Gluten-Free Crispy Southern Fried Chicken Livers with your favorite dipping sauce.
