1

Inspect chicken livers for freshness; they should be shiny and aromatic.

2

Remove any bitter fat from the chicken livers by cutting them in half and carefully trimming it away.

3

Keep the cleaned chicken livers refrigerated until ready to cook.

4

Wash rice in cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

5

In a pot, add 1 tablespoon of oil, the vegetables, and the washed rice; sauté on medium-low heat without crushing the rice.

6

Add 1 cup and 2/3 cups of boiling water to the pot, stir gently, and bring back to a boil.

7

Once boiling, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.

8

Heat olive oil in a skillet until it starts to smoke, then add the chicken livers without overcrowding the pan.

9

Season the chicken livers with salt and pepper and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown.

10

Remove the chicken livers from the skillet and set aside.

11

In the same skillet, add more oil, then add 1 onion and 1.5 bell peppers, cooking until softened.

12

Add 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of paprika, a pinch of cumin, and 1 teaspoon of oregano; mix and cook for about 10 minutes until the onion is golden.

13

Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of flour and mix well.

14

Add 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce; stir to combine.

15

If the sauce is too thick, add more water as needed.

16

Add back the chicken livers to the sauce and let simmer for 5 minutes without stirring too much.

17

Serve the chicken livers on a plate with rice, garnished with hard-boiled egg pieces and parsley.
