Season both sides of the liver steaks with salt and black pepper.

Cook the liver for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but still slightly pink in the center.

Remove the liver from the skillet and tent with foil to keep warm.

In the same skillet, add a splash of red wine to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
