How to Make Beef Liver In Mustard Sauce

  1. Season beef liver slices generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons of margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the liver and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
  3. Remove the liver from the skillet and set aside, keeping it warm.
  4. Pour off excess fat from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon of margarine.
  5. Add the chopped shallots to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened and translucent.
  6. Pour in the white wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  7. Reduce heat to low, stir in the Dijon mustard, and whisk until smooth and creamy.
  8. Simmer the sauce for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to slightly thicken.
  9. Return the seared liver to the skillet and gently coat with the mustard sauce.
  10. Serve immediately, spooning the sauce generously over the liver.
