Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Beef liver
- 1 pound, sliced thinly
- Onions
- 2 medium, thinly sliced

- 4 cloves, minced
- Fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup, chopped (for garnish)

- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika

Instructions
- Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut it into thin slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- In a bowl, combine the cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a spice blend.
