Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 onions, sliced thin
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 pounds 1/2-inch-thick slices calf's liver, cut into 1 1/2-inch squares
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
  • 6 fresh sage leaves, or 1/2 teaspoon dried sage

Method

  • In a large nonstick frying pan, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter over moderately high heat.
  • Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.
  • Reduce the heat to moderate and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are well browned, about 5 minutes longer.
  • Remove.
  • Sprinkle the liver with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper.
  • In the same pan, heat the remaining tablespoon oil and 1/2 tablespoon butter over high heat.
  • When the pan is very hot, add the liver and sage.
  • Cook, stirring, until just done, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, return the onions to the pan, and toss.
