- Chicken Liver (appropriate amount)
- Spaghetti
- Mushrooms
- Onion
- Flour
- Parsley
- Chicken Liver (appropriate amount)
Seasonings
- Bouillon
- Olive Oil
- Butter
- Garlic
- Salt

- [A] Marsala Wine (Dry)

Steps
- Prepare the chicken liver. Cut larger livers into pieces smaller than yakitori liver while keeping their shape, and remove any blood clots.
- For the hearts, remove any surrounding fat, cut them in half, and clean out the inside. (Pro Tip!) Lately, the liver quality is good, so a quick odor removal is sufficient.
- Wrap the prepared chicken liver in paper towels and thoroughly pat dry.
- Thinly slice 100g of Mushrooms.
- Season the dried chicken liver with Salt (to taste) and Pepper (to taste) all over.
- Lightly coat the seasoned chicken liver with Flour (to taste), tapping off any excess. (Pro Tip!) Flour is used to thicken the sauce and to sear the liver to a fragrant crisp.
- Melt some of the 50g of Butter in a heated frying pan, arrange the chicken liver, and sear until browned on all sides.
- Prepare another frying pan. Finely chop 100g of Onion and sauté with 1 small clove of Garlic, some of the 50g of Butter, and Olive Oil (to taste).
- Start boiling pasta. Short pasta (like penne) is also great for this dish.
- Wipe away any excess fat from the pan used to sear the chicken liver.
- Add approximately 70cc of [A] Marsala Wine (Dry) and 80cc of [A] Marsala Wine (Sweet) to the chicken liver pan. Simmer to evaporate the alcohol. (Pro Tip!) Madeira wine can be used as a substitute.
- Add the thinly sliced 100g of Mushrooms to the pan with the onions and sauté briefly.
- Add a splash of White Wine to the mushroom and onion pan, let the alcohol evaporate, and season with Salt (to taste).
- Combine the sautéed mushrooms and onions with the liver sauce.
- Gradually add 200cc of Bouillon while simmering the liver sauce to thicken. (Pro Tip!) The flour will create a wonderful sauce consistency.
- In a separate pan, melt the remaining 50g of Butter. Gradually add some of the pasta cooking water and stir to combine.
- Toss the cooked spaghetti or penne with the butter.
- Add the liver sauce to the butter-coated pasta, and adjust the consistency with a little more pasta water if needed.
- Plate the pasta, generously ladle the liver sauce over the top, and garnish with Parsley (to taste) for a colorful finish. Enjoy!
