Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
- 500 g chicken liver
- 1 glass of cognac (approximately 100 ml)
- 2 large, healthy onions
- 1 tablespoon of oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon of flour
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon of freshly chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preparing the liver: Start by thoroughly washing the chicken liver under cold running water. Then, remove any visible membranes or blood vessels, as these can affect the final texture of the dish. Once cleaned, cut the liver into evenly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.

2. Marinating the liver: In a bowl, add the cut liver and pour in the cognac. Let it marinate for 10 minutes. This step will not only add a deep flavor, but the cognac will also help tenderize the liver.

3. Preparing the onions: Peel the onions and slice them thinly. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they become golden and soft. The caramelized onions will add sweetness to the dish, balancing the intense flavor of the liver.

4. Cooking the liver: Once the onions are ready, add the marinated liver to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, turning the pieces periodically to brown them evenly. Be careful not to overcook, as the liver can dry out quickly.

5. Preparing the rösti: In a separate bowl, beat the egg with the flour, adding salt and pepper to taste. In another skillet, heat a little oil and pour in the egg and flour mixture. Fry over medium heat until you achieve a golden crust on both sides (approximately 3-4 minutes on each side). The rösti will add a crunchy and pleasant texture, perfectly complementing the liver.

6. Assembling the dish: Once the liver is cooked, serve it immediately alongside the crispy rösti. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top for an extra touch of freshness and color.

Useful tips:
- Choose fresh, quality liver, as the taste will significantly influence the final dish.
- If you want to vary the recipe, you can add spices such as sweet paprika or herbs like thyme or oregano.
- Serve the liver sauté with a fresh green salad for a contrast of textures and flavors.
