Ingredients
1 lb sliced beef liver
2 tbsp olive oil (or other cooking oil)
2 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tsp paprika or chili powder (optional)
Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Rinse beef liver slices under cold water and pat dry.
- Prepare marinade by mixing oil, lemon juice (or vinegar), garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika if using.
- Place liver slices in a shallow dish and coat with marinade. Let sit for 15–30 minutes.
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and oil the grates.
- Grill liver slices for 3–4 minutes per side, depending on thickness, keeping the center slightly pink.
- Transfer to a plate and let rest for a few minutes.
- Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve.
Notes
- Substitute lemon juice with red wine vinegar or balsamic for deeper flavor.
- Add onion slices or bell peppers to the grill as a smoky side.
- Sprinkle cumin or coriander in the marinade for a Middle Eastern twist.
- Use pork or chicken liver instead, adjusting grilling time accordingly.
