  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make chicken liver with bell pepper? Prepare all ingredients. For bell peppers, I advise you to choose different colors - half of each. This way the dish will turn out not only tasty, but also beautiful. It is better to use fresh liver. Fresh liver is elastic, whole, and retains its shape when fried and stewed. Read more about choosing liver at the end of the recipe. If you still use frozen liver, you must first defrost it in the refrigerator.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Rinse and dry the thyme. If you don't have fresh thyme sprigs, you can use dried ones. You can also replace thyme with any other herbs to taste or dried Provençal herbs.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Rinse the liver thoroughly until the water runs clear, remove fatty layers and remaining bile. Cut large livers in half. Do not cut them too finely, otherwise the liver will dry out and become tough during cooking.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Peel the bell pepper from seeds and cut into medium pieces. You should not chop it too finely, otherwise the pepper will spread due to long stewing.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Place chicken livers in the frying pan. Fry the liver over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring. The entire liver should take on a light brown tint.

    STEP 8

    Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the liver with bell pepper for about 15 minutes over medium heat. During this time, the liver and bell pepper will release a lot of juice. Therefore, the dish will be stewed in a sufficient amount of liquid. Thanks to this, the liver is very tender and soft.

    Divide the liver with bell pepper into plates and serve immediately. The finished dish can be sprinkled with chopped herbs. Boiled rice, potatoes or pasta are suitable as a side dish. Bon appetit!

I love liver dishes and cook them regularly. This time I was interested in the recipe for chicken liver with bell pepper. I just had 400 grams of liver. Instead of fresh thyme, I added dried thyme. I only had red pepper, I cut it into strips. I used a cast iron frying pan for cooking. I fried the liver for about 4 minutes, stewed it with bell pepper for about 10 minutes. The liver turned out tender, soft and really melted in the mouth. This was my first time making livers with bell peppers, and I really liked this combination. And the whole family was happy. I served the liver with pasta. Maria, thank you very much for the recipe!
