Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef liver thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Cut the liver into thin slices and blot dry with paper towels. Sprinkle it with salt, pepper, garlic powder and smoked paprika.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring often, for about 7 minutes until golden brown and caramelized.
  • Transfer the onions to a plate and cover with foil.
  • Carefully wipe the skillet clean with paper towels. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add the liver slices and cook in batches if needed.
  • Cook the liver for about 3 minutes per side. Avoid overcooking as the liver will be tough.
  • Serve the cooked liver topped with the sautéed onions.
