Southern Fried Pork Liver is often enjoyed as a main course, served alongside classic Southern accompaniments like creamy mashed potatoes, collard greens, and tangy coleslaw. The dish pairs exceptionally well with a drizzle of homemade gravy or a dollop of tangy barbecue sauce, adding an extra burst of flavor to every bite.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound pork liver, sliced into thin pieces
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions:

1. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Aim for at least 1/2 inch of oil to ensure proper frying.
4. Dip each slice of pork liver into the seasoned flour mixture, coating it thoroughly. Shake off any excess flour.
5. Carefully place the liver slices in the hot oil, along with the thinly sliced onions. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Ensure the onions also turn caramelized and crispy.
6. Once cooked, transfer the fried liver slices and onions to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
7. Serve the Southern Fried Pork Liver and onions immediately while they're still hot and crispy. They can be enjoyed as is or with your choice of sides and condiments.
