8. 8

   Remove the skillet of vegetables from heat, but keep warm in their pan.

   In another skillet over high heat, saute the liver pieces, stirring and turning constantly so they don't stick, until they are cooked through, about 3 minutes. Dump the liver into the waiting skillet of warm onion, etc. Return it to heat for a minute to let flavors combine, then serve. Serves 4 generously or about 2/3 cup well drained, stewed, canned tomatoes.
