Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken livers
- 4 plum tomatoes, cubed
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 3/4 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 fresh chili pepper, sliced
- Sea salt flakes, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh coriander, for garnish
Instructions
- To start, prepare and clean the chicken livers. You can check out the tutorial in the article above. It involves soaking, rinsing, and drying the chicken livers.
- Make sure that your livers are completely dried with paper towel before cooking them. Then, cube them into smaller pieces if you'd like.
- Before starting the cooking process, you can also blend the tomatoes. Combine the diced tomatoes, cumin, paprika, and turmeric in a blender. Blend until you have a smooth paste.
- Next, heat some olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute them until they become soft (about 5 minutes).
- Add the minced garlic and fresh sliced chili. Mix the ingredients well and fry them for a minute.
- Then, add the chicken liver cubes. Allow them to cook for about 4-6 minutes while stirring frequently. Remove them from the heat and set them aside.
- Pour the blended seasoned tomato mixture into a separate saucepan. Give the ingredients a good stir, then bring the sauce to a simmer. Leave it to cook for about 10 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. You should have a thick substantial mix.
- Finally, pour the cooked tomato sauce over your chicken liver and onions. Allow it to smother for 5 minutes.
- Then, garnish your Moroccan chicken livers with freshly chopped coriander and serve it immediately.
