Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Beef liver
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 medium, thinly sliced Onion
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 8 large Lettuce leaves
- 1 sliced Tomato
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 sliced Avocado
Instructions
Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut the liver into approximately 1/2-inch thick slices.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until they begin to turn translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the liver slices to the skillet.
Season with salt and ground black pepper, and cook the liver for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
Once the liver is cooked, remove it from the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on each lettuce leaf.
Place a slice or two of cooked liver on each leaf, followed by a slice of tomato and some avocado slices.
Fold the lettuce leaf over the filling to form a wrap, securing with a toothpick if necessary.
Serve the sandwiches immediately while warm, or refrigerate for up to a day for a cold option.
