30 minutes

Fried chicken liver with onions and spices is a dish that combines rich spice aromas and the soft texture of liver. Its roots trace back to European cuisine, where the skill of cooking offal has reached true mastery. The liver, fried in sesame and vegetable oil, absorbs the spicy notes of cumin, coriander, and red pepper, creating a rich flavor spectrum. The light caramelization of onions adds sweet undertones that harmonize with soy sauce. The finishing touch is fresh cilantro, adding zest and freshness. This dish is perfect for both everyday dinners and special occasions; it can be served with a side of rice or fresh vegetables. A true delight for gourmets who appreciate the balance of flavors and textures.
