Grilled Calf Liver Kabobs With Wilted Spinach Salad image

I imagine this won't be one of Zaar's most popular recipes. However for the liver and spinach lovers out there, this is fantastic! I got this recipe from the Omaha Steaks Meat cookbook and made only a few changes. I have to admit, I'm submitting this in part because my sister hates liver! She's a new member to Zaar, and even though we're grown, I still like to gross her out occasionally!

1 1/2 lbs calf liver, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes (easier to do if partially frozen, you should have about 24 pieces of liver)
salt and pepper

  • Each skewer should have 3 pieces of liver, 2 pieces of onion and 2 cherry tomatoes.
  • Grill kabobs over medium high heat for 5 to 6 minutes on each side until the liver is cooked and the bacon and onions begin to brown.
  • Keep warm while preparing the salad.
  • For the wilted spinach salad- Heat reserved bacon drippings, add the shallots or green onions and cook for about 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat slightly, and whisk in the mustard, balsamic vinegar and oil.
  • Add the spinach, toss with the dressing and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, just until spinach begins to wilt.

I'm not usually a fan of liver, but I really enjoyed these kabobs. The marinade and grilling process really improved the flavor and texture of the liver.

These kabobs are a great way to enjoy liver without having to eat it plain. The marinade and grilling process really tenderizes the liver.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The liver is savory, the spinach is slightly bitter, and the balsamic vinegar dressing is sweet and tangy.

I used baby spinach instead of regular spinach for the salad. It was a nice touch.

I marinated the liver in olive oil, garlic, and oregano for an extra hour before grilling. It added even more flavor to the kabobs.
