Chicken livers are a nutritious and affordable source of protein. This was served as part of a brunch buffet when I entertained friends and family. It was one of the favorites among guests.

The spices, cream, and brandy gives it an interesting taste. Chicken livers are high in essential vitamins (A, B, C, E) and minerals, (iron, folate, and selenium).

This recipe makes 4–6 portions based on serving size.
