Ingredients
-
15 oz of fresh chicken livers, defatted and cut in half
2 teaspoons of butter (about 11 g)
1 Tablespoon olive oil
8 oz brown mushrooms.
1 medium onion, about 3/4 cup, thinly sliced
1 oz tomato paste
2 oz med-dry red wine, such as Merlot
8 oz whole canned plum tomatoes, cut in quarters
with about 2 oz of the juice
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Makes about 2 lbs of stew and approximately 6 servings of 1/2 cup each.
1. Wash and pat dry the livers and cut in half.
2. Melt the butter with the olive oil over a high flame, quickly brown the livers about 3 minutes per side.
3. Whisk the tomato paste into the wine. Cut the large mushrooms into quarters and halve the smaller ones (you want them to be about the same size as the livers when they're cooked) Add the mushrooms and onions to the pan with the livers and add the wine/tomato paste, stir gently but quickly to mix. Saute about 5 minutes, gently stirring frequently.
4. Add the tomatoes, garlic, the an ounce or two of the juice from the tomatoes and the salt, stir, then cover and simmer for another 5 minutes.
