Bangin’ Liver

What you’ll need:

  • 1/3 cup grass fed butter or ghee
  • 1 pound calf’s or chicken liver, chopped
  • 6 garlic cloves, crushed and minced
  • 1 large green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 chili pepper, seeded and chopped (add or subtract depending on spice preference)
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamon powder
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon salt (more as needed to taste)

What to do:

Sprinkle some salt on the chopped liver.

Heat up butter/ghee in a large frying pan on med-high (keep the cover nearby). Add liver and stir carefully, allow the liver to brown.

Once the liver has changed colors, add ALL the ingredients (save half the lemon juice) and mix well.

Once everything is totally coated and there is a good sizzle sound going on, reduce heat to med-low. Cover and let cook for another 10-15 minutes.

When serving, be sure to scrape up the browned-sauce that has occurred in the pan aka FLAVOR PUNCH. Serve with the remaining lemon juice, pinch of salt if needed, and fresh chopped parsley.

Personally, I top it off with a drizzle of high quality extra virgin olive oil and cayenne.

Enjoy!
