INSTRUCTIONS
Trim roots & any wilted tops from green onions. Cut each onion in half
lengthwise; then in quarters crosswise; very thinly slice each piece. Set
aside. In a large, heavy skillet, melt butter in oil. Meanwhile, dredge
liver slices in flour. When butter is melted & hot, add liver. Then add
diced onions, green onions & garlic; cook until liver & onions are lightly
browned. Turn liver & season with salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper &
herbs. Cook until browned on second side, adding more butter & oil as
needed to prevent sticking. Mix tomato sauce, wine, vinegar & lemon juice;
pour over liver; reduce heat so sauce simmers. Cook a few minutes until
flavors are blended. Taste & adjust seasonings. Place liver slices on
warmed plates or arrange around mound of spaghetti on platter if desired.
Top with sauce, sprinkle with parsley & serve. Makes 4 servings. TIP: To
prepare spaghetti, cook enough dried spaghetti for 4 servings according to
package directions. Drain & toss with 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil and
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter. Then toss with 1/2 cup or more freshly
grated Parmesan cheese.
