How to Make Beef Liver With Country Gravy

  1. Preheat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large (12-inch) frying pan over medium heat. The oil is ready when a drop of water sizzles on the surface.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Add 1 pound of beef liver (sliced 1/2 inch thick) to the bowl. Gently toss to coat. Shake off excess flour.
  4. Add the liver to the preheated pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Add 1 medium onion (chopped) to the pan and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of the reserved flour mixture until smooth and lump-free.
  7. Return the pan to medium-low heat. Pour in the milk and flour mixture, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens and begins to bubble.
  8. Reduce heat to low. Add the browned liver back to the pan. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the liver is cooked through and tender (no pink inside).
  9. Serve immediately over mashed potatoes, with a side of corn, and biscuits or cornbread.
