Liver has gotten a pretty bad rap lately! I don't want to get into a big debate about the good or bad points of liver but I will say this, my husband and I grew up on chicken livers and calf liver. We know what the liver does and the purpose of the organ in the body. However, I still believe organ meat has some benefit for the average persons diet. This recipe is one of our favorites and is a nice addition to any meal plan. We can learn from our ancestors and let no part of the animal go to waste. My Great Grandmother said it feeds your blood and she lived to be 98 years old.

Cook at bubble to reduce wine and until the chicken livers are only slightly pink in center. **If you would like to make more sauce, remove chicken livers and mushrooms and onions and add additional wine and butter to the pan, stirring and scraping the pan, bring to a bubble and allow wine to reduce. if necessary you may add a small slurry of 1/2 cup water and 3 Tablespoons cornstarch to the mixture and bring to a bubbling boil and cook for about 5 minutes to thicken. that way you will have enough sauce to coat the noodles.
