Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Liver

    Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Trim any connective tissue or membranes from the liver.

  2. 2

    Slice the Onions

    Peel the onions and slice them into thin rings.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Onions

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté them for about 10 minutes, or until they are soft and translucent.

  2. 4

    Cook the Liver

    Push the onions to the side of the skillet and add the remaining olive oil and butter. Increase the heat to medium-high. Once hot, add the liver slices to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer it well done.

  3. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the liver is cooked to your liking, mix the sautéed onions back into the skillet with the liver. Serve hot.
