Instructions

Wash the beef liver in cold water, pat dry and cut into 1 inch pieces. Place in a bowl.
Slice the onions and add to the liver pieces in the bowl.
Season the liver and onions with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Coat evenly.
Place into the air fryer tray/basket in a single layer (may need to cook in several batches). Spray the top of the liver/onion mix.
Cook for 12 minutes at 400º F. If not done, toss and keep cooking in 1 minute increments until done; being careful to not overcook as it can turn the liver tough, dry, and chewy. Instant read thermometer should read 165º F.
Serve with chopped green onion (spring onion) or cilantro.

Notes

Adhere to your own machines instruction manual for proper cook times and food prep. A liner can be used to ensure no pieces fall through the basket/tray.

Ingredients

Units Scale

8 oz. Chicken Livers

1/4 c. Flour

2 Tbsp. Corn Starch

Onion Powder

Garlic Powder

1/2 c. Milk

1 Egg

Olive Oil Spray

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Rinse the chicken livers, pat dry, and leave atop extra paper towel to soak up any residual liquid.
Combine the flour, corn starch, and seasonings (feel free to use as much or as little of the powders as you want) in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg.
Dip the livers in the milk mixture and then into the flour mixture. Place each piece into the air fryer basket/tray as you go. Repeat this until basket/tray is full (in a single layer with space around each piece; do not overcrowd.)
Using the oil, spray lightly to coat the floured livers.
Cook for 10 minutes at 390º F, turning them half-way into the cooking time. More spray may be needed once turned.
Continue to cook, checking every minute until they are golden and crispy.

Notes

The flour and starch can be subbed for arrowroot powder and tapioca flour.

The oil spray will ensure the flour/starch adheres to the livers and doesn’t stay a powdery coating.

Remember to adhere to your own machines instructions for cook time/use.

Use your own combinations of spices and herbs to create your own flavor profile!

Try a squeeze of fresh lemon overtop of the finished livers.

Pairs great with many dipping sauces like your favorite bbq or buffalo sauce!

These flavorful, crispy bits of pork belly will be a repeat snack for any occasion! A perk using the air fryer is there is hardly any mess as opposed to traditional methods of preparing these tasty nibbles! Feel free to season/marinade in whatever you feel emboldened to create!

10.5 lbs. Potatoes, peeled and quartered

1 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Prep the lamb roast by scoring it and rubbing it well with salt and pepper.
Place lamb inside the air fryer basket/tray and place the tied Bouquet Garni next to the roast; this will give off aromatics as the roast cooks, flavoring the meat.
Cook for 30 minutes at 320º F.
Meanwhile, place the peeled and quartered potatoes into a bowl and season with salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme and extra virgin oil oil.
After the initial 30 minutes cook time on the roast, turn the lamb, remove the garni bundle, and place potatoes around the roast filling in gaps (but ensure a single layer only.)
Cook for an additional 25 minutes.
Remove the potatoes and roast. Check the internal temperature of the roast. If the roast isn’t cooked to preferred doneness, place back into air fryer and continue to cook, checking every 5 minutes until done.
If potatoes are not crisp, add them back in to continue cooking and check every 5 minutes until done.
Allow lamb to rest for at least 10 minutes prior to serving.

Notes

If the roast isn’t cooking fast enough, feel free to cut it in half. This will speed up cooking.

Internal Temperature Info:

Rare=118º-123º F
Medium-Rare=131º-134º F
