Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, julienned
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 garlic cloves, slivered
1/2 jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded and julienned
2 Roma tomatoes, cored, seeded and julienned
12 green olives, pitted and julienned
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 (6-ounce) slices calves' liver, about 1/2 inch thick

Directions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onions with the salt until well caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and saute 2 to 3 minutes longer to soften.

Add the jalapeno, tomatoes, olives and vinegar. Bring to a boil. Pour in the chicken stock, bring back to a boil and simmer 10 minutes. Break the butter into a few pieces and whisk into the sauce. Remove from the heat.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add liver and cook for 3 minutes per side. Then pour in the sauce, bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Serve immediately.
