Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Liver

Rinse the calves liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Slice the liver into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

2

Flour the Liver

Spread the all-purpose flour on a plate and season it with salt and black pepper. Dredge each piece of liver in the flour, shaking off the excess.

3

Cook the Onions

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove onions from the skillet and set aside.

4

Cook the Liver

In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the floured liver slices and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked to your liking. Avoid overcrowding the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.

5

Combine and Serve

Once the liver is cooked, return the sautéed onions to the skillet and toss to combine. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
