The present study was set the purpose of investigating the effects of chicken liver as a chicken meat replacer on some quality characteristics of model system chicken meat emulsions. For this purpose, one control (100% chicken meat) and three different chicken liver treatments were formulated as follows: L25 (75% chicken meat+25% chicken liver), L50 (50% chicken meat+50% chicken liver), and L75 (25% chicken meat+75% chicken liver). Chicken liver replacement ratios significantly affected moisture and protein contents and pH (p<0.05). The lowest emulsion stability and water holding capacity was observed in L75 (p<0.05). L75 also had the highest cooking loss among the emulsions (p<0.05). Chicken liver replacement ratio increments resulted in lower L* and b* values and higher a* values (p<0.05). Textural properties of emulsions were significantly affected by the presence of chicken liver in formulations, and softer emulsions were achieved with increasing chicken liver addition (p<0.05). The present study showed that chicken liver could be a good chicken meat replacer at up to 50%; however, this ratio could be increased by the addition of binders/fillers in meat products.
