Cooking chicken liver in a slow cooker - 3 simple and quick recipes!

Chicken liver should definitely be included in the family diet. It contains iron, folic acid, and B vitamins, which makes it an extremely valuable product, along with beef liver. But unlike the latter, the chicken is tender and delicate, not demanding on the selection of ingredients and is prepared very quickly, even easier than the usual chicken thighs with potatoes in the oven. The use of the multicooker will simplify the task even more. But first things first!

The secrets of choosing chicken liver

To make the dish delicious, you should buy fresh chilled liver. A rich burgundy-brown color and elasticity will help to distinguish it from the frozen one: click on a piece and it will quickly return to its shape. It is important that all the pieces are of the same shade, green blotches are excluded. There should not be a lot of blood clots.

Why not use a frozen product? Because after defrosting, the liver acquires a loose structure and literally falls apart in the hands. In the process of cooking in the pan will remain "porridge" with small interspersed pieces of sweet-bitter aftertaste. Uneven color allows distinguishing thawed liver - from light red to orange tones, and “lethargy” to the touch. Do not use such a product to experiment with how to cook chicken liver in a slow cooker. You will find only disappointment.

Preparing a dish in the multicook Redmond and Panasonic

As an example, let's use a recipe for cooking chicken liver in a Redmond multicooker. This will be a classic version of a dish with cream sauce. Immediately make a reservation that we will not use sour cream, despite the widespread opinion about the perfect combination of these products. Cooking chicken liver in a slow cooker with sour cream - not the right combination, since in the process of heating sour cream has the property of "exfoliating". And the result is a dish dotted with numerous white lumps. A great option would be the classic French bechamel sauce, which is very easy to cook as in the photo. So let's get started!

You will need:

• chicken liver - 1 kg;
• onion - 1 large head;
• salt and pepper;
• butter - 50 g;
• flour - a tablespoon;
• milk - 500 ml;
• nutmeg - ½ teaspoon.

Cooking

1. Rinse and cut the liver into medium slices. Peel and chop the onion.
2. Turn on the Redmond multicooker in the Baking mode, set the timer for 30 minutes. Pour the vegetable oil into the bowl, put the onion. Fry for 7 minutes until the beam becomes transparent with the lid closed.
3. Add the liver and close the lid again. After 15 minutes, mix and leave to simmer. You do not need to add water, since the liver gives a lot of juice during cooking.
4. Make a sauce at this time: melt butter in a pan, add flour, mix with a wooden spatula. You should get a golden mass with bubbles. Pour hot milk into it, mix, let it boil. After 10 minutes, add the nutmeg and mix again.
5. Half an hour after the start of cooking, add salt and pepper to the liver, fill it with sauce and let it stew for 30 minutes.
