This recipe yields a savoury and rich dish of chicken livers. They are first coated in a seasoned flour mixture before being pan-fried until cooked through. Chopped onions and garlic are then sautéed until soft, and the livers are returned to the pan. A final addition of sherry wine creates a quick, flavourful sauce. The entire process takes about 20 minutes to complete, serving four people. It is a classic preparation often enjoyed over a bed of rice.
