Ingredients
Scale
Creating this dish doesn’t require a pantry full of exotic ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound chicken livers, cleaned and trimmed
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko works great for extra crunch)
- Cooking spray
If you’re missing something in the spice department, don’t stress. My mom was the queen of substitutions and always encouraged a little kitchen improvisation. Try using what you have on hand and make it your own!
Instructions
Follow these steps to create a dish that’ll have your family asking for seconds (or thirds):
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F. This ensures that the livers cook evenly and achieve that perfect crispy texture.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- Dip each chicken liver into the flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. My kids love helping with this step, and it reminds me of how I used to help my mom with breading!
- Place the coated livers in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd them, or they won’t crisp up as nicely.
- Lightly spray the livers with cooking spray to help them brown and crisp.
- Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
