Prep time: 25 min
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 4
Ingredients: chicken or turkey livers – approx. 600 g, cleaned; onion – 1 large, cut into crescents; bacon – 50 g, diced; garlic – 2–3 cloves, sliced; bell peppers – 2 pcs, sliced into strips; tomatoes – 2 pcs, diced (or 200 g crushed tomatoes); oil – 2 tablespoons for sautéing; grill seasoning – to taste (or a mix of thyme + oregano); ground sweet paprika – 1 teaspoon; black pepper – to taste; plain flour – 1 heaping tablespoon (for thickening); salt – to taste; spring onion – for garnish

Preparation procedure

Base preparation: In a deeper pan heat the oil and sauté the onion until translucent. Add the bacon and garlic, briefly sauté until golden.
Liver and seasoning: Add the cleaned, dried livers, sprinkle with grill seasoning, ground paprika and pepper. Sear briefly for 1–2 minutes, then cover and simmer for 4–5 minutes so they remain juicy inside.
Vegetables and simmering: Add the peppers and tomatoes, stir and simmer for another 6–8 minutes until the vegetables soften.
Thickening and seasoning: Dust with flour, mix well and cook for 1–2 minutes. Salt only at the end (the livers will remain tender), and adjust with pepper if needed. Sprinkle with spring onion.

Total preparation time:

10 minutes prep + 15–20 minutes cooking
Total: approx. 25–30 minutes

Number of servings:

4 servings

Tips:

Choice of liver: Chicken livers are milder and cook faster; turkey livers have a more pronounced flavor.
Don’t dry out: Cook the livers briefly — after thickening, just cook for a short time.
Side dish: Basmati rice, buttery potatoes, tagliatelle, or a crusty baguette.

Conclusion

Liver with peppers and tomatoes is proof that a quick pan dish can taste like it’s from a bistro. The tomato juices will combine the bacon, peppers and spices into a full sauce, and tender livers add protein and character to the meal. In half an hour you’ll have a fragrant dinner on the table that you’ll be happy to return to.
