BEEF/LAMB CHILI

Steps:

• Instructions for the night before:.
• Trim 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 and place in fridge for at least 8-12 hours. This will neutralize some of the strong flavor of the liver.
• The next day:.
• Warm oil 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!
