What to serve
In order for the taste of chicken and onion dishes to reveal in all its glory, you need to seriously take the choice of side dish. Given that the chicken liver has a rather specific taste, it is important that the side dish is less pronounced. Its taste should be neutral, so as not to interrupt the taste of the liver, and not create an unpleasant combination of taste. So, what is fried chicken liver best combined with?
- classic combination - mashed potatoes with butter;
- friable buckwheat porridge with butter or tomato sauce;
- boiled and then well-fried pasta in vegetable oil;
- since the liver has a sour-sweet taste, beets and pumpkins, baked with spices and garlic, are gorgeous for it;
- A quick and amazing combination can be achieved with spinach, fried mushrooms, sweet bell peppers, tomatoes, green salad, carrots, cucumbers.
