Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef liver
- 2 medium onion
- 2 medium tomato
- 3 whole garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim any membranes and slice the liver into thin, bite-sized strips.
Peel and thinly slice the onions. Cut the tomatoes into small wedges. Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until they become soft and slightly golden.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the beef liver slices to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes, until the liver is lightly browned.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and paprika over the liver and stir to coat evenly.
Add the tomato wedges and cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their juices.
Reduce the heat to low and drizzle the lemon juice over the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve hot with rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread for a complete meal. Enjoy!
