SAUTEED CALF'S LIVER



Sauteed Calf's Liver image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound calf's liver, cut into 1/2 inch thick pieces
1 1/2 cups whole milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons sunflower or other neutral-tasting oil, plus more as needed
4 fresh sage sprigs, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place liver in a nonreactive (ceramic or glass) bowl and pour milk over. Refrigerate, covered, 5 to 6 hours.
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. When butter is shimmering, add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring more frequently until onions are very soft and brown, 30 to 40 minutes more.
  • Drain liver and discard milk. Pat liver dry with paper towels.
  • Spread flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Thoroughly coat liver with the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  • Heat a large (13-inch) saute pan over medium heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the oil and heat until shimmering. Cook (in batches, if necessary, to avoid crowding pan) until liver is firm (but not hard) and browned on the outside but still slightly pink in the center, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining liver, adding more oil to the pan as necessary. Add sage and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Divide liver among plates and top with onions.

SAUTEED CALF'S LIVER WITH ONIONS AND CAPERS



Sauteed Calf's Liver With Onions and Capers image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 thin slices calf's liver, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups thinly sliced onions
1/4 cup corn oil
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup drained capers
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Trim away and discard any tough membranes in the liver slices. Cut the slices into thin strips about a quarter of an inch wide. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a small heavy skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, over moderately high heat about 10 minutes or until onions are golden brown. Reduce heat as necessary. Do not allow the onions to burn or they will be bitter.
  • When the onions are almost ready, heat a wide, heavy skillet and add two tablespoons of the corn oil. When hot and almost smoking, add half of the liver strips. Cook over high heat, turning the liver pieces so that they cook evenly. Cook about three minutes. Scoop out the pieces and transfer them to a warm serving dish.
  • Heat the remaining two tablespoons of corn oil. When it is very hot, add remaining liver strips. Cook as before. Remove the liver and add to the initial batch.
  • Pour off all fat from the skillet and wipe it out thoroughly. Return the skillet to the heat and add the butter and capers. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, about one minute. Add the liver and onions. Stir to blend well.
  • Cook until thoroughly hot. Sprinkle with the vinegar and toss about 15 seconds. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with chopp edparsley and serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure the liver is cooked evenly, slice it against the grain into thin, uniform pieces.
  • Soak the liver in milk for 30 minutes to remove any bitterness and tenderize it.
  • Pat the liver dry before cooking to prevent splattering and ensure a nice sear.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or non-stick pan for even heat distribution and to prevent sticking.
  • Cook the liver over medium-high heat to quickly sear the outside while maintaining a pink and tender inside.
  • Avoid overcooking the liver, as it can become tough and dry. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  • Allow the liver to rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving to let the juices redistribute.

Conclusion:

Sautéed calf's liver with mustard shallot sauce is a classic French dish that is both delicious and easy to prepare. By following these tips, you can create a tender and flavorful liver dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
