8. Working with one piece at a time, coat the liver with the flour mixture, shake off any excess flour and place on a plate while working with the others.
9. Add remaining 1 tablespoons oil to the same skillet over medium heat. When hot, add seasoned liver pieces and cook until nice and brown, about 1 ½ to 2 minutes per side depending on the thickness.
