Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Wipe the liver dry with paper towels and dredge lightly with flour, shaking off excess.

    Melt the butter in a large frying pan and brown the liver pieces on both sides. Remove to a dish and keep warm.

  3. Step 3

    Add the garlic, saute for a minute, then add the Irish whisky and bring to a boil. Add the stock and cook, stirring, until thickened.

  4. Step 4

    Add the tarragon and heavy cream and season to taste with salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Return the liver to the pan and coat with the sauce. (Allow the liver to cook a little more if necessary, but beware of overcooking.)
