Ingredients

• 2 garlic cloves, peeled
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
• 1 tbsp olive oil (for finishing)

Instructions

Step 1: Fire up the Arteflame grill

1. Pour some vegetable oil on three paper napkins.
2. Place the soaked napkins in the center of the grill.
3. Stack firewood over the napkins and light them.
4. Allow the grill to heat up for about 20 minutes.

Step 2: Prep the ingredients

1. Pat the rabbit livers dry with a paper towel.
2. Season them with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
3. Slice the bread and set aside.

Step 3: Sear the rabbit liver

1. Place the rabbit livers on the center grill grate for a high-heat sear.
2. Sear for about 1 minute per side to lock in juices.
3. Move the livers to the Arteflame’s flat griddle to continue cooking to medium-rare (about 2-3 more minutes).
4. Remove the livers when they are 15°F below the desired temperature (they will continue cooking off the grill).

Step 4: Toast the bread

1. Place the bread slices on the outer section of the flat griddle to toast.
2. Once golden brown, rub each slice with a peeled garlic clove.

Step 5: Assemble and serve

1. Top each toasted bread slice with grilled rabbit liver.
2. Drizzle with sherry vinegar and olive oil.
3. Sprinkle with chopped parsley.
4. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips

• For extra richness, spread a thin layer of butter on the toasted bread before adding the liver.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness.
• Let the liver rest for a few minutes before serving to retain all its juices.

Variations

1. Garlic and Herb: Add finely chopped thyme and rosemary to the livers for an aromatic touch.
2. Spicy Pimentón: Increase the smoked paprika for some heat and add a touch of cayenne.
3. Sherry and Shallots: Deglaze the cooked livers with sherry and caramelized shallots for sweetness.
4. Citrus Infusion: Add a drizzle of fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
5. Truffle Essence: Finish with a few drops of truffle oil for an elevated touch.
