    Step 1.

    How to make chicken liver with gravy in a frying pan? Prepare all the necessary ingredients for this. If the chicken liver is frozen, then take it out of the freezer in advance and leave it at room temperature so that it thaws on its own. Then rinse it in running water and dry it. If you have a small onion, then you can take 2-3 onions. I have one, but it's a big one.

Important! An incorrectly selected frying pan can ruin even the best recipe. All the details on how to choose the perfect frying pan for different dishes read here .

Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it. How to determine the roasting temperature and choose the best oil for frying, and which is better not to use at all, read here .

Keep in mind that the final result in this dish also depends on how you chop the carrots: grated carrots will turn into mush during heat treatment and mix evenly with the rest of the ingredients, cut into strips or cubes will retain their shape.
