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.

This recipe with scrambled eggs, chorizo & Mett is prepared effortlessly within 15 minutes. It is nutritious and saturating and works as lunch, dinner or breakfast.
First, cook the broccoli in a pot or in the microwave until it is done. This should take about 15 minutes
While the broccoli is cooking, melt coconut oil in a pan on medium heat and fry the Mett for about 5 minutes, until you have small cooked chunks (similar to fried ground beef)
Next, the sliced chorizo salami goes into the pan and gets fried for 5-7 minutes, until crispy
Drop eggs on top of the fried meat, let them sit for a minute while adding the seasonings, then scramble everything and fry it for 2 more minutes
Finally, place everything on a plate including the broccoli -which should be done by now- and sprinkle some salt over it
Recipe Notes
Mett is German minced pork meat that contains seasonings and can be eaten raw.
Usually, it is spread on a slice of bread, but to make it keto friendly you may spread Mett on a slice of cheese, cloud bread/bun, keto flatbread or simply fry it.
Of course, this recipe works with ground beef or usual minced pork instead of Mett, too.
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
