Method

  • step 1

    Put all the ingredients for the sauce into a food processor, then whizz to a rough paste. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the remaining hazelnuts onto a baking sheet, roast for 5 mins until lightly toasted, roughly chop, then set aside.

  • step 2

    Now make the salad – add the olive oil and butter to a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Quickly fry the livers in 2 batches until browned, about 2 mins per batch. Add the sherry, then bubble for a few mins over a high heat. Stir in the sauce and allow it to thicken and heat through. Splash in the lemon juice, then season to taste. Dress the salad leaves with a little sherry vinegar. Spoon the livers and sauce onto serving plates, sprinkle with the toasted chopped hazelnuts, then scatter over the dressed salad leaves and serve straightaway.

RECIPE TIPS
TIP

If I have time, I like to soak the rocket salad in cold, salted water for half an hour. This keeps the leaves crisp and also seasons them to bring out their flavour

This is SO delicious (much tastier than the chicken livers look). I used unblanched hazelnuts and just grilled them to toast them which was perfect (only 2 minutes and not the whole oven needing to be heated up).

My husband was very unsure about this dish but had to admit it was very tasty. I think it was the smokiness of the paprika that made it such a good dish.

A really delicious, quick, nutritious and not too expensive recipe which everyone enjoyed and is something a little different. Couldn't find any hot smoked paprika, but it was very good even with standard paprika! We had it for a mid-week supper, but it would certainly be suitable for a posh lunch…
