Easy Tomato Onion Chicken Livers
Easy chicken livers recipe with tomato and onion. Another way to incorporate these nutritious livers into our diet.
I cook chicken livers on regular basis, mostly pan fried (my favorite recipe). Today I thought about cooking them with onion and tomato sauce to diversify the flavor of this product so rich in Iron that’s good for our body.
Let’s get to business.
🧄 Ingredients Needed
There are few ingredients used in this recipe:
- Chicken livers – you can make this recipe with pork liver too
- Onion – to give taste and sweetness to this recipe
- Pepper – one small red bell pepper (or any kind you have)
- Tomato puree – some tomato puree or passata
- Garlic – a few garlic cloves for intense flavor
- Oil – vegetable cooking oil
- Seasoning – salt, pepper, dry thyme
- Fresh parsley or dill
🍳 Directions
Step 1. Cook the vegetables
Clean and rinse the livers and pat them dry. Set aside.
Chop the onion and pepper in fine strips (julienne). Place a large enough pan / skillet on medium-low flame and heat 3-4 tbsp oil. Add the onion and pepper and saute for a few minutes.
Then add a glass of water and let them cook through, covering the pan with a lid. Cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring from time to time and adding a little water if necessary.
Step 2. Add livers
Add the chicken livers and tomato puree and stir well.
Cover with lid again and let them cook another 10 minutes.
Step 3. Season
Season with 1 tsp salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 tsp of dry thyme also. Cover again and let them cook until the chicken livers are done (another 10-15 minutes).
1 minute before turning off the heat add the crushed garlic and stir. Turn off the heat, cover and let the garlic infuse for a few minutes.
Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley or dill if available.
