Best Liver With Onions Raisins And Jalapeños Recipes

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!

• In a shallow dish, dredge the liver, patted dry, in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
• In a skillet, heat the remaining 2 tblsps butter and the oil over moderate-high heat until hot and sauté the liver in batches, turning it, for 3 minutes, or until browned outside and pink within.
• Transfer liver with slotted spatula and keep warm, covered.
• Add the raisin mixture and stock to skillet and reduce over moderate-high heat, stirring, until thickened slightly.

LIVER WITH ONIONS, RAISINS, AND JALAPEñOS

Steps:

• 1. Put the raisins in a small bowl and cover with warm water to soften 10 minutes. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the liver until brown on both sides, but still pink inside, about 1 minute per side. Transfer the liver to a plate. 2. Reduce heat to medium and cook the onion in the same skillet until soft and brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the raisins and add to the skillet along with the sliced chiles. Return the liver to the pan and heat through completely, about 2 minutes. Divide the liver among 4 plates. Spoon the onion mixture equally over the top. Serve at once.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes."
