Best Liver And Onions With Cider Gravy And Biscuits Recipes

SAVORY LIVER AND ONIONS SMOTHERED IN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt ButterWhen making this recipe I do like using an electric skillet. Set skillet temperature at 200 degrees Fahrenheit and melt butter.
• Add OnionsSlice onions 1/4 inch thick and place onions on top of butter.
• Add LiverRemove liver from packaging and place sliced livers on top of onions.
• SeasonSeason with salt and pepper. I kinda go heavy with the pepper (see photo below). Increase skillet temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cover skillet. Cook liver and onions for about 7 minutes.
• Cook/SimmerRemove skillet lid and turn livers over and season with salt and pepper. Return lid and turn temperature down to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and continue cooking for about 30 minutes.
• GravyI make the gravy in 2 batches (I don't know why, I just do). Place 1 cup milk with 1/4 cup all-purpose flour in a large glass and whisk to combine until smooth. Add this mixture to the skillet.Make another batch of milk and flour whisking together until smooth and add to the skillet.At this time I slide the livers and onions to one side of the pan while stirring the gravy in the skillet and then slide them back over.If the gravy is too thick feel free to add more milk to get the consistency desired. Turn heat down and simmer. During this time make your side dishes like the mashed potatoes and spinach.
• Serve & Enjoy!

ABSOLUTE BEST LIVER AND ONIONS

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!

• Pour beef broth on top of liver and onions.
• Cover and simmer on low until onions are tender and broth forms a nice gravy.

LIVER AND ONIONS WITH CIDER GRAVY AND BISCUITS

Steps:

• Make the biscuits:
• In a bowl whisk together the flour, the baking powder, and the salt, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Add the milk and stir the mixture until it is just combined. Knead the dough gently on a floured surface for 30 seconds, pat or roll it out 1/4 inch thick, and with a floured 3-inch cutter cut out 4 rounds. Bake the biscuits on a buttered baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden.
• While the biscuits are baking, in a bowl toss the liver with the flour and salt and pepper to taste. In a large heavy skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it brown the liver, and transfer the liver to another bowl. Add to the skillet the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the onion and cook the onion over moderate heat, stirring occasionally and scraping up the brown bits, until it is golden. Add the cider, 1/4 cup water, and the liver with any juices that have accumulated in the bowl, simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the liver is cooked through, and season it with salt and pepper.
• Split the biscuits and spoon the liver and onion mixture over them.
