Chicken liver is very rich in protein, high in iron and loaded with essential B vitamins. This is just naming a few of the wonderful health benefits it provides. Pate is often seen on a decadent cheese platter but it is a great thing to have in the fridge to add to sandwiches, crackers or serve with vegetable sticks and it is very easy to prepare.
Chicken liver pate
- 90 grams butter
- 2 garlic cloves crushed
- 1 small brown onion or 2 small shallots
- 250 grams chicken livers
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped parsley leaves
- 1 tsp salt
In a medium frypan, on medium heat, melt the butter leaving 20 grams for later. Add the garlic and onion and saute for about 5 minutes.
Add the livers and cook for a further 4 minutes. Add the maple and vinegar and cook for another two minutes.
Remove from the heat and cover for 2 minutes.
Allow to cool. Transfer to a blender or food processor. Blend with the cream and salt until smooth.
Transfer to a ramekin or two and heat the remaining butter and pour over the top. Place in the fridge to set.
Serve on sandwiches, with crackers or vegetable sticks.
