This was the best liver and onions recipe I've ever made. I advise doubling the sauce recipe, it is so yummy, you will want more :))

I HATE LIVER!!! But... this was delicious! The wine sauce was fabulous and mixed with the liver and onions was spectacular. You might want to double the sauce because you'll want extra for your potatoes or pasta. Also, I had fried up the liver in bacon fat instead of the butter and oil. YUM! I may be eating liver just a wee bit more nowadays!! Thanks...

I just made this. Seriously. I saw the recipe a few days ago, and I bought all the ingredients while I was out this morning. First of all, I hate liver. The only reason I eat it is because it's so healthy for us. I usually eat it breaded and with ketchup and horseradish. Seriously. :-) So I made this exactly as the recipe is written. Except I doubled up on the sauce, as a poster recommended. I also made mashed potatoes. This recipe is GREAT. I recommend it to everyone. (I used an inexpensive chardonnay for the white wine. I also buy organic liver.)

The sauce is what makes this dish. To make the sauce a little more liquid in order to add the liver as a compliment to a dish instead of the main course you can increase the amount of beef stock by 50% while keeping everything else constant.

Four stars because sauce took forever to make. Should say something about that in the description. That being said, it was delicious! Made a double batch, meat and sauce and family loved it. Saving it to My Cookbook!
