Method

Preparation of Chicken Liver Pâté

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a skillet, melt 50g of butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken Livers

    Add the chicken livers to the skillet. Cook until browned on the outside but still slightly pink inside, about 5-7 minutes. Pour in the brandy or cognac, and cook for another 2 minutes until the alcohol evaporates.

  3. 3

    Blend the Mixture

    Transfer the mixture to a food processor. Add the remaining butter, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and thyme. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  4. 4

    Chill the Pâté

    Transfer the pâté to a serving dish or individual ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and to firm up.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 5
