I have a real treat for you today, Fried Chicken Liver Po-Boy with Pickle Slaw! Everyone knows, I love my po-boys. This recipe pairs healthy chicken livers with crisp and sour pickle slaw. It’s a perfect mix of textures and flavors!
It’s also very easy to make this recipe AIP compliant by omitting the paleo mayo and black pepper in the slaw recipe. Simply increase the coconut milk to 3 tablespoons and add a splash of lemon juice. Easy peasy!
This is a great recipe for those trying to add more offal into their diets. Chicken livers are very mild in flavor. This recipe would also be great with chicken gizzards. The trick is to add a variety of textures and flavors to your offal dish. So, give this recipe a try. You may discover you actually like liver!
