This recipe for marinated chicken liver is super simple, makes the liver very tinder and mildens its taste. In addition, liver is extremely affordable and rich in nutrients at the same time.
You need to marinate the chicken liver about 12-24 hours before you want to cook it.
Optimally, you do this the previous evening if possible
Put the chicken livers into a zip lock bag or a container and add all other ingredients
Mix everything thoroughly and make sure that the meat is completely covered.
Then, close your zip lock bag or container and store it in the fridge for 12-24 hours
When this waiting period is over, preheat your pan with some lard or coconut oil in it to medium heat
Finally, fry the chicken liver for 10-15 minutes. It is no problem if some of the marinade goes into the pan and you can even use it to cook the liver in it or make a sauce out of it
While the liver is cooking, you may prepare some side dishes, like boiled eggs, vegetables or mushrooms
Recipe Notes
Never pour raw, leftover marinade over the cooked liver.
If you want to use the leftover marinade, make sure to boil it up to kill all harmful bacteria.
Don't marinate in aluminum containers or foil, because a chemical reaction could spoil the food.
The best way to marinate liver is using the zip lock bag in order for it to be evenly surrounded by the marinade.

Chicken Heart Tuna Meatballs - With Oven Baked Broccoli
These chicken heart tuna meatballs are a delicious and extremely nutritious alternative to standard meatballs with ground beef. This preparation method is a great way to disguise the chicken hearts and get yourself and potentially your children, too, to eat this healthy meat if you are not familiar with it yet.
First, mince the chicken hearts and onion in a food processor for about 10 seconds on a high speed
Next, add the remaining ingredients for the meatballs, including seasonings and mince for another 20-30 seconds until it is a homogenous mixture
Preheat a pan with about 30 gram coconut oil, lard or whatever you prefer to medium heat
Use a tablespoon and your other hand to form the meatballs from the mixture and place them in the pan
Turn down the heat to low, put a lid on the pan and fry the meatballs slowly for about 10 minutes, until they start to become solid on the top, too
Now, you can flip and slowly fry them with the lid on for another 5-10 minutes
Finally, set the heat to medium-high and fry the meatballs as evenly as possible from all sides, for about 5 minutes, in order to get a nice brown colour and roasting flavors
Broccoli
While the meatballs are frying, you can easily prepare some oven baked broccoli as a side dish.
First, set your oven to 180°C-200°C.
Put the broccoli on a baking tray which goes into the oven. After 5-10 minutes, the broccoli should be thawed and you can sprinkle some salt on top.
Finally, bake it for another 20-25 minutes until it starts to become dark brown on the top and has a slight crispiness.
Recipe Notes
As you can see on the picture I made a creamy sauce to go with everything, too. If you want to know how to make it check out this asparagus cream sauce recipe.
This chicken curry recipe is my own creation. In the past, I used to make it with cream only, but I think the variation with coconut milk is way better.
