Lamb Liver with Oranges
More often than not, liver is relegated to the backbenches of cuisines, yet it reigns as a nutritional powerhouse. Lamb liver is remarkably rich in high-quality protein—vital for muscle repair and growth. It’s also a champion source of iron, which is essential for oxygen transport and preventing anemia. Combine that with a hefty dose of vitamin A, necessary for immune function, vision, and skin health, and you have a superfood that’s been sorely overlooked.
Serve with a side of Creamy Mashed Cauliflower to balance the robustness of the liver. On another plate, Balsamic Roasted Carrots and Green Beans adds a delightful contrast in texture and sustenance.

How to Make Lamb Liver with Oranges
