Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Clean the veal liver by removing any membranes or veins. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Chop the shallots finely and set them aside. Prepare the fresh tarragon by roughly chopping it.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shallots

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Sear the Veal Liver

    Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the veal liver slices to the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but still slightly pink in the center. Remove the liver from the skillet and set aside.

  4. 4

    Deglaze the Pan

    Pour the white wine into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom, and let it simmer for 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Combine and Finish

    Return the veal liver to the skillet, add the fresh tarragon, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning as needed.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the seared veal liver and spoon the shallot-tarragon sauce over the top. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
