Ingredients

• 500 grams chicken livers
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion
• 2 medium carrots
• 2 celery stalks
• 3 garlic cloves
• 3 medium potatoes
• 4 cups gluten-free beef broth
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup frozen peas

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the chicken livers thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels and cut them into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the liver pieces and sear them until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the liver to a plate and set aside.

Step 3

Dice the large onion, slice the carrots and celery stalks, and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the same pot and sauté the onion, carrots, and celery until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Cube the potatoes into bite-sized pieces and add them to the pot along with the minced garlic. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 6

Pour in the gluten-free beef broth and add back the browned liver pieces to the pot.

Step 7

Add the bay leaves, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

Step 8

Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it cook for 35-40 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Remove the bay leaves before serving. Ladle the gluten-free liver stew into bowls and enjoy its hearty flavors.
