Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with this recipe for liver with onions

This post has been compensated by Rumba Meats. All opinions and recipe for liver with onions are my own.

Sautéed Beef Liver with onions (Hígado Encebollado)

If there is a recipe that reminds me of my Dominican roots, it is “Hígado Encebollado” (sautéed liver with onions), I remember my tía Nenena preparing this inexpensive yet delectable recipe and us getting ready and excited for dinner!

Although most of us in the family knew how to cook, my tía was the “lady in charge” of the kitchen when it came to preparing those authentic, traditional dishes with uncommon cuts of meats such as beef liver, tongue or beef kidney; There was something about her seasoning that made everything taste better.

When I came to the United States I thought it was going to be hard for me to recreate authentic Latinos dishes, especially those made with unusual cuts of meat. To my surprise finding organ meats here is not difficult at all.

That’s why I’m so glad that I partnered with Rumba Meats® to bring you our famous: Hígado Encebollado (sautéed liver and onions)

Beef Liver is used in North America and many other countries just like any other cut of meat; In the island of Dominican Republic, it’s usually prepared stewed or sautéed with onions and it is rich in iron which makes it perfect for people with iron deficiency.

My recipe for liver with onion is very simple and I try to keep it as authentic as possible but with a little twist– I love to marinate the liver in some red wine before cooking. To me, the liver turns out tender and more delicious this way.
