Classic Beef Liver with Caramelized Onions
Classic Beef Liver with Caramelized Onions
Ingredients:
- 1 pound beef liver, sliced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Directions:
- Rinse the liver slices under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the liver slices in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the liver slices and sear until browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the liver from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced onions and minced garlic, and cook over medium heat until the onions are golden and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
- Return the liver to the skillet with the onions. Add the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the liver is cooked through but still tender.
- Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
