Skillet Beef Liver


  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

A classic and hearty skillet beef liver recipe, pan-seared to perfection with onions and seasoned simply for a rich, savory flavor. This dish is quick to prepare and packed with nutrients.


Ingredients

Scale

1 pound beef liver, sliced into 1/4-inch thick pieces
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped


Instructions

Rinse the beef liver slices under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Dredge each slice of liver in the flour mixture, coating both sides evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and foaming.
Add the liver slices to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until browned but still slightly pink inside. Avoid overcooking to keep the liver tender.
Remove the liver from the skillet and set aside on a plate, covering loosely with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized, about 7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the onions and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the beef broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the broth simmer for 2 minutes until slightly reduced.
Return the liver to the skillet, spoon some of the onion and broth mixture over the slices, and heat through for 1 minute.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the liver and onions before serving.
