Servings: 4

Ingredients

Beef liver
1 pound, sliced thinly
Onions
2 medium, thinly sliced
Garlic
4 cloves, minced
Fresh parsley
1/4 cup, chopped (for garnish)
Olive oil
3 tablespoons
Lemon juice
2 tablespoons
Salt
1 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/2 teaspoon
Paprika
1 teaspoon
Ground coriander
1 teaspoon
Ground cumin
1 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut it into thin slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
  2. In a bowl, combine the cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a spice blend.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the sliced onions and minced garlic, sautéing until the onions are golden brown and soft, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the liver slices to the skillet and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the top. Cook for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until the liver is browned and cooked through but still tender.
  5. Drizzle the lemon juice over the liver and stir gently to combine. Remove from heat.
  6. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
