Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the chicken livers, trim any tough parts, and cut into small pieces. Slice the onion and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    In a pan, melt the clarified butter over high heat. Add the onion and garlic, sauté for 2 minutes until translucent.

  3. 3

    Add the liver pieces, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring, until the livers are golden and cooked through. Drizzle with lemon juice at the end.

    Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: mix tahini with a little water (about 2 tablespoons) until smooth and pourable. Stir in the chopped parsley.

  5. 5

    Lightly heat the pita bread in a pan or oven. Open them in half to form pockets.

    Stuff each pita with the liver, drizzle with tahini sauce, and add a few slices of tomato, red onion, and chili (if desired). Serve immediately, hot and crispy.
