Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken thighs boneless, skinless
  • 1/2 lb chicken liver cleaned
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Method
 

  1. Cut the chicken thighs and liver into small, bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, cumin, turmeric, paprika, allspice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
  3. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, tossing well to ensure all the meat is coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the minced garlic to the onions and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  6. Add the marinated chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the liver is browned, about 10-15 minutes.
  7. Serve hot with pita and your choice of sides like Israeli salad or hummus for a complete meal.

Notes

For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the marinade. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
