Are you tired of the same old chicken dishes? Want to add some exciting flavor to your weeknight dinners? Look no further than this delectable chicken liver adobo recipe!
First, let’s start with the star of the show – the chicken liver. This organ meat is packed with nutrients like iron, vitamin A, and protein. Don’t be intimidated by the idea of eating liver – when cooked properly, it has a soft and delicate texture.
To begin, heat a large skillet on medium-high heat and add some oil. Once the oil is hot, add 1 pound of chicken livers that have been cut into bite-sized pieces. Cook for about 5 minutes until they are browned on the outside, but still pink in the middle. Remove the livers from the skillet and set them aside.
Now it’s time to make the adobo sauce. In the same skillet, add 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup vinegar, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 4 cloves minced garlic, and 1 bay leaf. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a simmer. Once it’s simmering, add the cooked chicken livers back to the skillet and cover them in the sauce. Let everything simmer together for 10-15 minutes until the chicken livers are fully cooked and the sauce has thickened.
Serve the chicken liver adobo hot over rice or your favorite grain. Garnish the dish with some chopped green onions for added flavor and color.
Looking for a perfect drink to pair with this bold and flavorful dish? Try a cold glass of iced tea with a splash of lemon. The bright citrus flavor will help balance out the richness of the liver.
