Ingredients

  • Lamb liver - 300 grams
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh rosemary - 1 tablespoon, chopped
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cherry tomatoes - 100 grams, halved
  • Zucchini - 1 medium, sliced
  • Fresh parsley - for garnish

Steps

  1. Rinse the lamb liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. In a bowl, mix together olive oil, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  3. Add the lamb liver to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  5. While the grill is heating, prepare the vegetables. Toss the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced zucchini in a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  6. Place the marinated lamb liver on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and slightly firm to the touch.
  7. At the same time, grill the cherry tomatoes and zucchini for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
  8. Remove the liver and vegetables from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
  9. Slice the grilled liver and serve it on a plate alongside the grilled vegetables, garnished with fresh parsley.
