Chicken Liver with Rice (Pirincli Tavuk Cigeri)

~1 lb chicken liver, washed and drained
1 cup rice, washed and drained
1 onion, chopped
2-3 Tbsp canola oil
2 cups hot water
1 Tbsp salt to taste
½ tsp cumin (optional)
½ tsp black pepper

Take the chopped onions and canola oil in a pot and saute for 2-3 minutes. Chop the washed chicken liver and add to the sautéed onions. Saute over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until the livers change color and all the liquid is evaporated. Then, stir in the rice and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. Finally, add the hot water and salt to taste.
Cook until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed, for about 20-30 minutes over low heat. Add the cumin and black pepper, give it a final stir and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
ENJOY
