- 1 pound beef liver
- 1 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter divided
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 ½ cup beef broth
- 2 teaspoons Worchestershire sauce
- 1 sprig fresh sage
Soak liver in milk for 30+ minutes. This will remove any bitter taste from the liver.
While the slices of liver soak, add two tablespoons of butter to a large skillet set over medium heat and add the sliced onions. Saute until the onions turn golden brown and become tender. Then remove the onions and set aside.
While the onions cook, mix together the flour, salt, and black pepper, then dredge the raw liver in it, ensuring each piece is fully coated. The milk can be discarded.
Add the remaining two tablespoons of butter to the skillet along with the liver and cook until the flour becomes golden brown.
Slowly whisk in beef broth and Worchestershire sauce, add the fresh sage and return the onions to the skillet. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cook until it thickens. Add additional salt and pepper to taste and serve.
