For 4 serving

Ingredients

500 g chicken livers
600 g potatoes
3 cloves of garlic
1 tsp dried marjoram
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground sweet paprika
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
approx. 50 ml vegetable oil

Preparation procedure

Peel the potatoes, cut them into larger pieces and put them into salted water. Parboil them for about 5 minutes so they soften slightly, then drain.
Clean the chicken livers of membranes and any impurities. Briefly blanch them in boiling water for 3–5 minutes and drain. This step ensures a more tender texture and removes any possible bitterness.
Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Lightly grease a baking dish with oil and spread the potatoes together with the livers in it.
In a bowl mix the oil, pressed garlic, marjoram, oregano, ground paprika, salt and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over everything.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes. During baking stir or turn the contents several times so the ingredients brown on all sides.
After baking check that the potatoes are soft and the livers are cooked through. Serve immediately.
