Ingredients:
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 10 fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tbs butter
- 1 1lb container chicken livers
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 packet of onion soup mix
- 3 tbs soy sauce
- 1 tbs dijon mustard
- 1/2 Cup sour cream
- 1 1/2 cups of water
- 1 chicken flavored box rice mix
- 1/2 can diced tomatoes with green chilies
- Pinch of freshly chopped parsley for garnish
Step-by-Step Instructions
Browning the Onions and Mushrooms
In a large frying pan, sauté chopped onion, garlic, and mushrooms in melted butter over medium heat until they’re nicely browned.
Preparing the Chicken Livers
Wash the chicken livers and add them to the pan with the wilted onions and garlic. Cook until they’re almost fully cooked, then set aside.
Creating the Sauce
In a separate bowl, combine the can of soup, onion soup mix, soy sauce, mustard, and water. Stir frequently to ensure the sauce thickens evenly.
Cooking the Rice
Prepare the rice according to the box instructions, adding in 1/2 can of diced tomatoes with green chilies for extra flavor. If you prefer a more nuanced taste, try using chicken or veggie stock instead of water.
Bringing it All Together
Add the sauce to the chicken liver mixture and simmer for 10 minutes on medium-low heat. Remove the lid and stir in sour cream once the mixture has cooled slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice on the rice.
