- Cooking chicken liver is fairly simple, but it does take some effort at the prep stage. So, wash the liver, then trim away the membranes and ducts, rinse it again, and transfer the prepped liver to a pot. Cover the liver with clean filtered water, add salt to taste, and stir. Peel the skin off an onion and add it whole to the pot with the liver. Add the bay leaves there too, rinsed under running water. Set the pot over high heat and wait for the liquid to boil. When it does, turn the heat down to the very lowest setting and cook the liver from that point for 15 minutes. As it cooks, add spices to taste — peppercorns (a mix works well) and dried aromatic herbs would be a nice touch, for example. In short, go by your own preferences here.
- If you're boiling the liver for a baby, it's best to leave out all the spices and herbs and add just a little salt. When the time is up, drain the water from the pot and serve the liver with any side dish. Don't forget to remove the onion, bay leaves, and other spices. Grains, pasta, boiled potatoes, and boiled or steamed vegetables all go wonderfully with the liver. You can also serve it with fresh vegetables and herbs. And of course — don't forget your favorite sauces, which perfectly round out the flavor of the liver. Cream sauces pair especially well with boiled liver. Liver cooked this way can be added to salads. Blitz it in a blender and you've got an easy crepe filling. You can even just make sandwiches with it for a filling snack. All in all, it's a handy dish — light, satisfying, and delicious! And as you can clearly see, it's quick and easy to make. Enjoy your meal!
