Chicken Liver Risotto,

one of my mother's recipes, slightly bastardised for keto.

If you don't know already, liver is possibly the greatest superfood on the planet. Packed with
Vitamin C, Iron... I could go on and on or you could use Google! I have it once a week.
I also suspect anyone who's missing haggis will enjoy this. Many of the same textures and
flavours.
200g Chicken Livers (I used Morrisons, frozen)
50g Mushrooms, sliced
1 (30g approx) Shallot, roughly diced
150g Cauliflower Rice (I used Tescos, frozen)
20g Butter
2 tbsp Olive oil
3/4 tsp Mild Chilli Powder
Salt & Pepper
Serves 1 generously. Could probably serve 2 by simply adding another 150g of cauliflower rice,
another mushroom or two and another 1/4 tsp of chilli powder.
Method
1. Defrost chicken livers in good time
2. Wash chicken livers thoroughly
3. Remove the white sinews with sharp knife or scissors
4. Wash again
5. Pat dry with paper towel and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper
6. Add butter and oil to the pan
7. Add sliced mushrooms to the pan
8. After about 3 minutes turn the mushrooms and add the diced shallots
9. When translucent, put the mushrooms and shallots in a bowl, but keep the oil in the pan
10. However you are making your cauliflower rice (from scratch or shop-bought), it will need to
be ready in a few minutes
11. On a relatively high heat sear the livers on one side
12. After two minutes, turn and sear on the other side
13. Reduce heat and add mushrooms and onions into the pan
14. Add in the chilli powder and more salt and pepper if you wish
15. Give it a good stir
16. Add in the cauliflower rice and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, mixing the other ingredients
into it.
17. Serve (optionally) with a generous dollop of creme fraiche

You'll need to exercise some good food hygiene standards when handling raw livers. Keep your
hands clean and wash all vessels and surfaces carefully. Worth it for the taste and health benefits!
