Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by rinsing the veal liver under cold water. Pat it dry with paper towels. Slice the liver into thin pieces, about 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Chop the Onion

    Peel and thinly slice the large onion. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and place it on paper towels to drain excess fat. Leave the bacon drippings in the skillet.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Dredge the Liver

    In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Dredge the liver slices in the flour mixture, coating them evenly.

  2. 5

    Cook the Liver

    In the same skillet with the bacon drippings, add the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the dredged liver slices. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Avoid overcooking to keep the liver tender.

  3. 6

    Sauté the Onions

    Remove the liver from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Sauté until the onions are soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 7

    Combine and Serve

    Return the cooked liver to the skillet with the onions. Crumble the cooked bacon on top, and gently mix to combine. Serve immediately.
