Main Ingredients

Seasoning

Garnish (optional)

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Liver

    Rinse the beef liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut the liver into 1/2 inch thick slices.

  2. 2

    Slice the Onions

    Peel and slice the onions into thin rings.

Cooking

  1. 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 cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown.

  2. 4

    Season the Liver

    While the onions are cooking, season the sliced liver with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides.

  3. 5

    Cook the Liver

    In the same skillet with the onions, push the onions to the side and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the liver slices. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through (the inside should still be slightly pink).

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Once the liver is cooked, remove from heat and place the liver on a serving plate. Spoon the caramelized onions over the top.

  2. 7

    Garnish

    If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
