Grilled chicken livers with a balsamic glaze have a rich history dating back to the Mediterranean region, where chefs sought to elevate the humble chicken liver into a gourmet delicacy. The dish gained popularity in Italian and French cuisines, with renowned chefs like Lidia Bastianich and Julia Child showcasing their unique takes on this classic recipe. Today, the best version of this dish can be found in upscale Italian and French restaurants, where chefs meticulously marinate the chicken livers in a balsamic glaze to infuse them with a sweet and tangy flavor.
