Chicken liver Meatballs with Avocado & Grapefruit Salad
Chicken liver Meatballs with Avocado & Grapefruit Salad
4 servings | 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tbsps Avocado Oil (divided)
- 1/2 Yellow Onion (medium, finely chopped)
- 1/4 cup Sauerkraut (drained)
- 6 ozs Chicken Liver (finely chopped)
- 1lb Lean Ground Beef
- 1 tsp Sea Salt (plus more for garnish)
- 1/4 cup Basil Leaves (chopped, plus more for garnish)
- 2 Avocado (medium, sliced)
- 2 Grapefruit (peeled, cut into sections)
METHOD
- Heat 1/3 of the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauerkraut and cook for six to eight minutes or until starting to brown. Let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the cooked onion mixture, liver, beef, salt, and basil. Use your hands to thoroughly mix. Roll into balls a little larger than the size of a golf ball.
- Add the remaining oil to the pan and turn the heat to medium. Add the meatballs, pressing on each side to create mini patties. Work in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Cook for a total of five to seven minutes, or until cooked through.
- Divide the avocado, grapefruit, and patties onto plates. Season with basil and salt as desired. Enjoy!
NOTES
- Leftovers: The salad is best enjoyed fresh. Refrigerate the patties in an airtight container for up to three days. Freeze the patties for up to three months.
- Serving Size: One serving is approximately four mini patties, and half of each an avocado and grapefruit.
- More Flavor: For the best flavor and texture, rinse the liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place in a shallow dish and pour in enough milk to cover. Soak for 30 to 60 minutes maximum. Place in a colander and rinse the milk off. Pat dry.
- No Chicken Liver: Use beef liver instead.
