Fried Chicken Liver with Rice

Fried chicken liver is a quick-to-make, Hungarian-style dish that becomes a filling dinner with the soft rice.

1. Clean the chicken liver, free it of its membranes, and pat it dry with paper towel.

2. Chop the onion finely and sweat it glassy in the heated lard.

3. Add the crushed garlic and stir for a few seconds, until fragrant.

4. Throw the liver in over a high heat and fry it, turning it often – salt it only at the end, or it turns tough.

5. Season with marjoram and pepper; the liver is right when browned outside and still pinkish and juicy inside.

6. Braise the rice tender in lightly salted water, covered, then fluff it with a fork.

7. Serve the fried liver with the steamed rice.

Tip: Leave the salting of the liver to the very end, so it stays juicy.
