Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp ghee
  • 1 Vidalia onion large-sized
  • 3 apples small-sized
  • 1 pound liver rinsed
  • 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Gather all the ingredients. Peel and slice the onion into a thin half-moon shape. Preheat cast-iron skillet on high heat. Once preheated add a tablespoon of ghee, make sure the bottom of the pan is coated with the fat before adding onions. Fry onions for 3-4 minutes till soft and slightly golden.
  • While onions are frying, core apples, and slice into a half-moon shape.
  • Once onions are cooked, remove them from the skillet and temporarily place them in a different dish. Add a tablespoon of ghee to the same pan, add apples to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes till slightly soft. Remove apples, add to the same dish with onions.
  • Add one more tablespoon of ghee to the still-hot skillet, using kitchen scissors cut liver into large cubes, fry constantly stirring for 5-7 minutes. Once the liver is cooked, add onions and apples, add salt, apple cider vinegar, stir well.

Notes

Beef liver. If possible, get quality liver from a healthy grass-fed animal.
Apples. The sweet kind will work the best in this recipe. I used Gala kind.
Onions. I recommend using sweet onions since the flavor is mild.
To check if the liver is cooked, no blood should be coming out when slightly pressing with a spatula.
For the best flavor, you want to cook it on high and quick.
