Ingredients
•
2 pounds sliced beef liver
•
1 1/2 cups milk, or as needed
•
1/4 cup butter, divided
•
2 large Vidalia onions, sliced into rings
•
2 cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
•
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1
Gather all ingredients.
2
Gently rinse liver slices under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place in a shallow dish; pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions, or set aside for longer if you have time. Soaking will remove any bitterness.
3
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion rings; cook and stir in butter until tender and soft, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer onions into a bowl and set the skillet aside.
4
Place flour on a plate; season with salt and pepper. Remove the liver from the milk and discard the milk. Coat liver slices in flour mixture.
5
Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet; increase heat to medium-high and fry coated liver slices until lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
6
Return onions to the skillet and reduce heat to medium; continue to cook until onions are heated through and liver is slightly pink inside, or longer to suit your taste.

Serve and enjoy!
