Mushrooms add fiber and antioxidants, while cream contributes healthy fats. A serving of this recipe has approximately 350-450 calories, depending on the amount of cream used. Recipe preparation 1. Preparing the ingredients: Start by washing the chicken livers well, then remove any visible membranes or fat. Let them drain in a colander. Clean the mushrooms and cut them in halves or quarters, depending on their size. 2. Heating the pan: In a large pan, add a few tablespoons of oil and heat it over medium heat. It’s important not to use too much oil to keep the dish light. 3. Cooking the livers: Add the chicken livers to the pan and fry them for 5-7 minutes until they become slightly browned. Don’t forget to turn the livers occasionally for even cooking. 4. Adding water: Once the livers start to brown, add 100 ml of water and cover the pan with a lid. This step will help them cook evenly and retain moisture. 5. The mushrooms and spices: After about 5 minutes, add the chopped mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper, then cover the pan again. Let the dish simmer on low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 6. Garlic and cream: Crush the garlic cloves with the knife blade and chop them finely. Add them to the pan, mixing well. In a separate bowl, take a few tablespoons of the sauce from the pan and mix it with the cream. This will help prevent lumps in the sauce. Pour the homogenized cream over the livers and mushrooms, gently mixing to combine all the ingredients. 7. Finishing the dish: Let everything simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Finally, add the chopped green onions and dill, mixing gently. Here you can adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Serving Serve the chicken livers with mushrooms and cream hot, accompanied by a hearty polenta. The polenta will absorb the delicious sauce and add a rustic touch to the dish. A glass of dry white wine will perfectly complement the meal, and the flavors will blend harmoniously. Useful tips - Canned mushroom variant: If you don’t have fresh mushrooms on hand, you can use canned mushrooms. Make sure to drain them well before use. - Tender livers: To avoid a bitter taste, make sure the livers are well cleaned and free of blood vessels. - Variations: You can add other vegetables, such as carrots or peppers, to diversify the dish. You can also replace the cream with a vegan alternative, such as soy yogurt, for a lighter version. Frequently asked questions 1. Can I use frozen livers? Yes, you can use frozen livers, but make sure to thaw them completely before cooking. 2. What other side dishes go well? Besides polenta, you can serve this dish with mashed potatoes or a fresh vegetable salad. 3. Is this recipe suitable for children? Yes, chicken livers are a good source of protein, but it’s best to adjust the amount of garlic and spices to suit the tastes of little ones. This recipe for chicken livers with mushrooms and cream is not only quick but also full of delicious flavors. Perfect for a family meal or a dinner with friends, you will surely impress anyone who enjoys it. Enjoy cooking and remember: every meal is an opportunity to create beautiful memories!
