classic Beef Liver and Onions recipe

Here’s a classic Beef Liver and Onions recipe—tender, rich, and full of old-fashioned comfort 😋

🍽️ Beef Liver and Onions

🛒 Ingredients

• 1 lb beef liver, sliced
• 1 cup milk (for soaking)
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
• 2–3 tbsp oil or butter
• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 1–1½ cups beef broth
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Soak the liver
   Place liver slices in milk and soak 30–60 minutes.
   This removes bitterness and keeps it tender. Drain and pat dry.
2. Season & dredge
   Mix flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
   Lightly coat liver slices in the flour mixture.
3. Cook the onions
   Heat 1 tbsp oil/butter in a skillet over medium heat.
   Add onions and cook until soft and golden. Remove and set aside.
4. Cook the liver
   Add remaining oil/butter to the skillet.
   Fry liver 2–3 minutes per side until browned (do not overcook).
5. Make the gravy
   Return onions to the pan.
   Add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
   Simmer 5–7 minutes until gravy thickens.
6. Serve hot
   Spoon gravy and onions over liver.
