Chicken Liver (or Tofu!) Salad


Have you ever watched a movie that you knew was going to be bad but it was on TV or your friend wanted to watch it so you watched it anyway but then ended up loving the movie - that is this recipe for me. I was fully expecting not to like this but I ended up loving it.

My sister was visiting this weekend and she was wondering what recipes I had left when she saw this one she said "Whose going to eat the chicken liver for you?" I said "No one, I'm just gonna use chicken for Husband. " To which she scoffed. So then I thought screw it - I'm gonna use tofu, the ultimate replacement for any meat. In my Metro I came across a smoked tofu that I thought looked full of potential so that's what I picked.

Back at the ranch, I came home from dinner tonight and whipped this together. I fried the tofu in oil like I woulda done the liver (plegh) and it made it all crispy and nice. Then you add the vinegar, maple sugar and deglaze. Then you put it over the arugula and voila. A lovely warm salad that is yummy, yummy, yummy. Even if you aren't a vegetarian. I highly recommend trying this with smoked tofu as a replacement for the chicken liver. It is sooo soooo good. This recipe won me over for sure.
