Food prepared in clay pots has an unusually rich taste, bright aroma and, of course, greater benefits than dishes made in the traditional way. Due to the fact that the material of the dishes is heated slowly and evenly, most of the substances that are so valuable to the human body are stored in the products. Chicken liver in a pot is no exception. Juicy and tender offal literally melts in your mouth, and its useful properties are a pleasant bonus to such a delicious dish.
Perfect harmony
To create a true masterpiece that even a food-hungry child will not refuse to eat, you need to know what a healthy offal is combined with. The perfect harmony of taste is easily achieved using various vegetables: potatoes, onions, carrots, garlic, pumpkin, bell peppers, eggplant or tomatoes. Many cereals, such as rice or wheat, as well as boiled pasta, also go well with chicken liver. As additional components, you can use tomato paste, dairy products (kefir, sour cream, cream, mayonnaise), fresh herbs and hard or cream cheese.
Various spices will make the taste of chicken liver in a pot more vivid and memorable. However, it should be remembered that the number of seasonings should be moderate. Spices with a pronounced aroma are also not recommended for use - they can clog the natural taste of the product.
