Was just at the store, they had chicken livers on sale.  I LOVE me some fried chicken livers, but I'm grilling tonight.

Hmmm...the oven will be on baking potatoes...shake and bake livers?

Picked up some generic shake and bake to try.

Anybody done this?  If so, any tricks to keep the livers from drying out?

Don't think it will turn out well, but tag for AAR.

My wife has made shake and bake chicken, and cooked the liver with the rest before.

It was kind of OK, but dry.

I think they might turn out better, since I'm only doing livers.  

I can take them out sooner than a whole cut up chicken.

Pics later if the camera has batteries.  Shitty ipod pics otherwise.

Chicken livers are good for 2 things only:
1) fish bait
2) trash bin

All I know is that when I get a craving for some chicken livers the ones at Chicken Express are quick and easy. No need to handle those things when they're RAWR as Gordon Ramsay says...

I googled a couple of breaded chicken liver recipes, they all had cooking times that seemed way too long for chicken liver.

 



Personally I would be tempted to dip them in milk, then in the shake and bake, then quickly deep fry them

When I lived in TN I used to see chicken liver all the time... is that a regional thing?

I'd eat it. Would be better deep fried though

Yeah, but I don't want to mess with the deep fryer.

And the oven will be on, anyway.

And it cost $1.27, so WTF?

Yes, those are excellent as well.  If you don't do it already, put a piece of sliced water chestnut.  It gives it some extra crunch.

Liver has a ridiculous amount of nutrients in it:  vitamin B12, vitamin A, iron, etc.  It's really good for you.  Some animal livers, though, can be toxic.  When I went on my moose hunt in 2002, we were told not to eat the liver.  There were some issue with high cadmium levels, but they also told us about vitamin A poisoning.  From Wiki:

While liver is often eaten, the vitamin A content of the liver of certain animals — including the polar bear, seal, walrus, moose, and husky — is highly hazardous.

This danger has long been known to the Inuit and has been recognized by Europeans since at least 1597 when Gerrit de Veer wrote in his diary that, while taking refuge in the winter in Nova Zemlya, he and his men became severely ill after eating polar bear liver. In 1913, Antarctic explorers Douglas Mawson and Xavier Mertz were both poisoned (and Mertz died) from eating the livers of their sled dogs during the Far Eastern Party.


Fish and chicken liver is fine.  In fact, I just learned this season that you can eat burbot/cusk liver which is a relative of cod fish.  I may try it next year.  I will be careful about cutting out the gallbladder.  I ice-fish for cusk during the winter as long as there is enough ice for it.  Bon appetit!
