Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken livers
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 units garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 unit lemon
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the chicken livers under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Trim any connective tissues and cut the livers into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the chicken livers with olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the livers are well-coated.
Step 3
Cover the bowl and let the livers marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for a more intense flavor.
Step 4
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. You want it hot enough to create a good sear, but not so hot that it burns the herbs.
Step 5
Once the grill is ready, carefully place the chicken livers on the grill grates. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the livers are browned on the outside and slightly pink on the inside.
Step 6
While grilling, cut the lemon in half. Once the livers are cooked, remove them from the grill and squeeze fresh lemon juice over them.
Step 7
Serve the grilled chicken livers immediately, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired. They pair deliciously with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
