Preparation

  1. Sprinkle the liver slices with salt and pepper, and dredge the slices in flour. Shake off the excess.
  2. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the slices in one layer. Add the slices and cook about 1 1/2 minutes on one side. Turn them over and cook about 1 1/2 minutes on the other side.
  3. Transfer the slices to a warm platter and wipe the skillet.
  4. Heat the butter until it starts to brown slightly. Add the capers and cook about 1 minute over relatively high heat. Add the tomatoes and cook about 30 seconds. Add the vinegar and stir. Pour the sauce over the liver and sprinkle with parsley.
