Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken liver
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 4 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1 teaspoon (grated) Fresh ginger
- 2 medium (finely chopped) Tomato
- 2 (sliced lengthwise) Green chili
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Rinse the chicken liver thoroughly under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim off any connective tissue or fat and cut the liver into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and form a thick base.
Stir in the coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the spices in the tomato mixture.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken liver pieces to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liver is browned and cooked through. The center of the liver should no longer be pink.
Add the green chili slices and cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the flavors meld beautifully.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the liver fry.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve warm. Enjoy your Whole30 Spicy Liver Fry on its own or with a side of sautéed vegetables.
