Fried Chicken Liver with Onions Recipe

Dusting chicken liver with flour and frying it with onions is perhaps easiest way to cook it.

Step of soaking liver in milk can be skipped; it is optional, but it helps to reduce bitter taste liver may have.

The best side dish for this one, to my opinion, is plain boiled potato or potato puree.

    An old Southern U.S. trick is to remove the little yellow sacs (bile?) from the livers. The sacs are what causes that bitter taste. Might turn a hater into a lover. You won’t believe the difference.
