Servings: 1 pound

- 1 pound chicken livers

- 1 cup self-rising flour could use all-purpose
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- pinch cayenne or a few drops hot sauce Optional
- 1/8 teaspoon cumin Optional
- cooking oil I use Canola and about 1/2 cup
Instructions
- Put the chicken livers in the buttermilk and let soak for about 3 or 4 minutes. Mix flour, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne and cumin in a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken liver in flour until totally covered
- Heat oil in skillet. Fry livers turning often until crispy. Remove from skillet and drain.
Notes
Gravy from Drippings: If you have any flour left over from dredging the livers put it in the drippings left in the frying pan. You need about 1/4 cup flour. I leave the crumbs in the skillet with the drippings, add the flour and stir to soak up the oil. Add about 1 1/2 cups milk and a teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring to keep from burning and cook until gravy thickens to desired consistency. Serve over chicken livers. Makes about 1 1/2 cups of gravy.
