ULTIMATE BEEF & LIVER CHILI RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Ultimate Beef & Liver Chili Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by [email protected]

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds grass-fed ground beef
1/2 - 1 pound chicken livers*
2-3 large onions, peeled and chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbs coconut oil or tallow
8 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped or 25 oz. peeled diced tomatoes
1 cup bone broth or water
4 tbs chili powder
1 tbs cumin
1 tsp coriander
2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tbsp unrefined sea salt (you'll probably want to add more, but if you happen to use stewed tomatoes or broth that has salt added this is a good place to start)
2 lemons or 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups dried black beans, optional
Beef liver can be substituted but it will need to be finely minced before it is sauteed with the onions/garlic. Also, I recommend using no more than 1/2 pound as beef liver has a very strong taste.

Steps:

  • Instructions for the night before: Trim chicken livers (To do this remove any white, stringy portions with your fingers or a knife) Place livers in a medium bowl and cover with water Squeeze in the juice of 2 lemons or 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar and place in fridge for at least 8-12 hours. This will neutralize some of the strong flavor of the liver Place beans in a bowl and cover liberally with water - they will expand to more than double their current size. Add 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar and allow to soak overnight. The next day: To make the beans: Rinse beans and place in a pot. Cover with a few inches of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow to simmer until tender. To make the chili: Warm oil/tallow over medium heat. Add onions, garlic and liver, mincing liver as finely as possible while you sautee. When the onions are soft and the liver resembles a coarse paste(about 10 minutes), add ground beef and saute until brown. Once the ground beef is browned, add the tomatoes and spices. If needed, pour in enough water/broth so that the meat is fully submerged. Bring chili to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for an hour. Enjoy!

1 cup beef or chicken stock (I used homemade bone broth)
28 oz canned diced tomatoes or 10-12 whole tomatoes, diced (I used canned)
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup red wine (optional) (I did not use)
1 tablespoon red palm oil or ghee (I used Palm oil)

2-3 tablespoons chili powder (depending on how spicy you like it)

1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for extra heat) (I did not use this)
Unrefined salt and pepper to taste

Add mashed garlic and beef (and puréed liver), and cook until meat is browned, crumbled and done all the way through. Add desiccated liver (if using) and spices, tossing to combine evenly. Pour in stock, tomatoes, tomato paste and wine if using. Simmer for about one hour. Can be served with diced green onions, cilantro or avocado for garnish as desired. Enjoy!

CHILI LIVER

Besides the usual liver, bacon and onion recipe, this was another way for me to cook liver using just a few ingredients, and to make this liver quite tasty! Believe it or not, this Chili Liver is quite delicious! Prep time includes, cooking the bacon, coating the liver with flour, and cooking it ahead of time before simmering it in the soup and chili sauce (or ketchup).

1 (10 1/2 ounce) can Campbell's French onion soup

  • Remove bacon from skillet; drain on paper towels, and set aside.
  • Dust the liver with flour (on both sides), then season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly brown the liver in bacon drippings. (It doesn't take long for the liver to brown, so keep an eye on it while it's cooking. Also, you will need to add a bit of shortening to the skillet while it's cooking).
  • When done frying the liver, set the liver aside on a plate, then add the soup and chili sauce (or ketchup) to the skillet. Mix the soup and chili sauce together.
  • Add the liver back to the skillet, and stir to mix the soup and liver together.
  • Tear the cooked bacon into pieces, and add that to the skillet as well.
  • Cover the skillet, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until liver is tender. Stir occasionally.
  • Yields: 4-5 servings. (12 oz.) of liver will make 4 servings, and (16 oz.) will make 5 servings.
