Today I decided to clean my refrigerator, the last time I cleaned it was before I left for my vacation, it was not too bad, it has some stains from spilled sauce, or some forgotten foods, some molded leftover sour cream and chili sauce.. so the rotten veggies and molded sauce were in the trash can, and all the stains were gone now... I have a clean and tidy refrigerator now.. at least for a few days :)
I found some chicken livers that my husband bought a few days ago, he said he was going to BBQ it over his wood fire, but until today he did not touch it, so with his "permission" I cooked it for our dinner today.. it was my mom's favorite way of cooking chicken livers.. I rarely cook it, not even once a year, if he did not pick it up on impulse, I would not buy it
We need:
- 1 lbs of chicken livers (about 12 pieces)
- 2 tbsp of sweet soy sauce
- sliced shallot
- minced jalapeno peppers (optional, my mom does not add it, but my husband likes it)
- 2 tbsp of butter
- black peppers
- 1 lime (cut in half) and 1 tbsp of lime juice
How:
- boil 1 liter of water, add the lime, some salt, when it boiled, add chicken livers, let it continues boiled for a few minutes, discard the water, rinse livers with cold water, drain out the water, pat dry with paper towel and set aside
- heat 2 tbsp of canola oil in a nonstick skillets, add liver in the hot oil, be careful as it splatters, cover it, cook for a few minuter, carefully turn the livers until browned.. set aside
- in another pan, heat butter, add shallots and peppers, stir until soft, add soy sauce, mix well, then add in the livers and black peppers, mix well again, add chopped cilantro.. give a quick final stirs
- plate it and squeeze in the rest of lime juice
- serve with steamed white rice
