Sauteed Calf's Liver With Pancetta And Red Onions

Yield: 2 Servings

Ingredients and directions for this recipe

1 ts Butter
1 c Flour
10 oz Calves' liver -- sliced
4 oz Pancetta -- thinly sliced
1/2 Red onion -- thinly sliced
1 tb Sherry vinegar
1/2 c Demi-glace -- (or veal
Juice)

CHEF'S NOTE: Pancetta is Italian salted pork belly that, when smoked, is
called bacon.

STEP ONE: Saute the Liver-- In a hot saute pan, melt butter until it begins
to smoke. Lightly flour each piece of liver and saute until pink.

STEP TWO: In a second saute pan, heat the pancetta and cover with onions
until they begin to caramelize. (The pancetta itself is sufficiently fatty
to saute the onions.) Plate the pancetta and onion and top with liver.

STEP THREE: Sauce-- Pour the sherry vinegar into the liver pan and reduce
to one teaspoon of liquid. Add the veal juice and bring to a boil, reducing
the mixture to sauce consistency. Pour sauce through a fine strainer over
the liver and serve.
