For an even richer flavor, consider using ghee (clarified butter) instead of regular butter.
Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the liver, as this will lower the temperature of the oil and result in steamed, rather than seared, liver. Cook in batches if necessary.
Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of the liver slices. Thicker slices will require longer cooking times.
