🧊 Safety & Storage
Refrigerate portions for up to 3 days; freeze in airtight containers for up to 2 months. Thaw frozen portions in the refrigerator overnight, never at room temperature. Wash hands and all surfaces thoroughly after handling raw poultry. Discard any uneaten food after 2 hours at room temperature. Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients and avoid any seasoning, onion, garlic, or salt.
⚠️ Recipe Drift Warning
Do not substitute liver with other organ meats without adjusting vitamin A levels; excess liver can cause hypervitaminosis A. Do not replace chicken with plant proteins as cats require animal-based amino acids. Avoid adding grains, dairy, or vegetables beyond those listed as they may cause digestive upset or nutritional imbalance.
