Beef Liver With Country Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Pour about 1/2" to 1" canola oil into a heavy skillet (I use a cast iron chicken fryer). Turn heat to high. When oil is hot, add onions and sprinkle with sugar. Reduce heat to medium high and cook, stirring frequently until onions have lightly browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
• 2. Remove liver from package, wash. If pieces are large, cut in half. Mix flour, corn meal, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Roll liver pieces in flour mixture.
• 3. In the same skillet that onions were caramelized in, add liver pieces a few pieces at a time so as not to overcrowd your pan. Brown well on both sides using medium to medium high heat. Transfer to plate and repeat with next batch.
• 4. Once all liver is browned, return to pan and top with onions. Reduce heat to medium and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to serving platter and arrange caramelized onions on top. Serve hot with your favorite veggies (I like to serve with mashed potatoes, sawmill gravy and green beans).

Steps:

• 1. Fry bacon, drain on paper towels; set aside. Cook onions in bacon drippings until slighlty carmelized. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl; set aside.
• 2. Mix flour with salt and pepper, dredge liver in mixture. Fry Liver in remaining bacon drippings for about 1-1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove liver and set aside.
• 3. Add onions and water to drippings in the pan, cover and simmer until gravy is as thick as you like. Add 1 teaspoon gravy master or kitchen bouquet for color. You can add a little more water if necessary to prevent sticking.
• 4. Put liver back in skillet with gravy and onions and make sure it is heated all the way through.
• 5. I serve with mashed potatoes and a slice of bacon.

Steps:

• Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
• When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat, until a drop of water sizzles on the oil surface.

• Brown the liver in the oil on both sides, remove them from the pan and set aside.

• Add the flour/milk mixture (white sauce) to the pan of onions, stir constantly, until the gravy bubbles.

• (NOTE: I keep the milk beside the stove JUST IN CASE the gravy seems too thick) Turn to low, add the liver, cover and simmer for another 10-15 minute.
• ,or until you see no more blood from the steaks.
