Pan Fried Linguica And Onions Recipes

ABSOLUTE BEST LIVER AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
• When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

PAN-FRIED LINGUICA AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a hot sauté pan, add the lard and melt. Add the onions, season with salt & pepper. Cook over medium heat until they start to caramelize about 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
• Add in the linguica and heat until the linguica is cooked all the way through and the skin casing is just beginning to burst, 6-8 minutes.
• Transfer to platter and serve.

PAN ROASTED COD WITH LINGUICA-CHICKPEA BROTH

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until soft. Add wine and cook until almost reduced. Add saffron and stock and bring to a boil. Add the beans, chickpeas, sausage, and mussels, cover the pot and cook until the mussels have opened. Add the butter, lemon juice, parsley, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Season cod on both sides with salt and pepper. Sear, skin-side down until golden brown. Turn the fish over and continue cooking until just cooked through. Place cod in shallow bowls and ladle linguica-chickpea broth, over and around. Make sure each plate has 6 mussels. Garnish with more parsley.

PAN-FRIED ONION CHEESEBURGER

Steps:

• Place ground beef in a bowl and season with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and shape into 3 balls. Set aside.
• Melt butter in a large skillet. Add onion and cook until onions start to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the skillet. Add 3 ground beef balls to the same skillet and flatten with a cast iron press or a heavy spatula. Evenly top each patty with onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Carefully flip patties over so that the onions are now on the bottom, pressing once again with cast iron press or heavy spatula. Top each with a slice of cheese and cook until cheese is melted and burgers have reached the desired doneness, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve on brioche buns.

LINGUICA AND GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Saute onion, garlic, and bell pepper in 1-2 Tablespoons butter or olive oil until onions are tender.
• Place onions,garlic, bell pepper, potatoes, linguica, and green beans in a large saucepan.
• Add enough water to cover.
• Add All-spice, red pepper, tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes, salt and pepper.

Sprinkle mixture with sugar and paprika and sauté 1 minute. Using slotted spoon, transfer mixture to plate; leave drippings in skillet.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to drippings in skillet. Add sausage and cook over medium heat until browned and heated through, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer sausage to plate with pepper mixture.
• Add wine to skillet; boil until reduced by half, scraping up browned bits, about 3 minutes. Return sausage and pepper mixture to skillet; stir in olives. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
