Veal Liver With Onions & Bacon

Submitted by Ackman

"Most people don't like liver because they've never had it prepared properly. The secret to making GOOD liver is to cook it over a medium high heat & to NOT overcook it! I prefer using Veal Liver, but Calf's liver works just as well...avoid regular beef liver due to it's bitterness."

Super recipe! I've made this 3 times in 3 weeks and we love it! I used calves liver and followed the recipe as written. It's the best liver I've ever made. Thanks for posting a true keeper!
