Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken livers
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 cup olive oil
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the chicken livers with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour and parmesan cheese. Mix in garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper, then set aside.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs together with the heavy cream until well combined.
Dip each chicken liver into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small drop of the egg mixture sizzles upon contact.
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, carefully place the coated chicken livers into the hot oil.
Fry each side for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Remove the fried chicken livers from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.
Serve immediately, optionally with a side of your choice such as a low-carb salad or steamed vegetables.
