While liver is probably one of the healthiest super foods on the planet, I feel the need to give full disclaimer. I am one of those people who has a complete and absolute aversion to liver. It’s not that “all in my head” thing that you sometimes hear when you are growing up. No, it does not taste better or even tolerable when drowned with more ketchup! But for some people, like my Mom and my Granny, liver is a delicacy and a delight. As a health nut, I have tried liver many ways in attempt to consume this protein that is so rich in vitamin A, B6, B12, folate, iron, copper and other minerals. In my quest, I still have not found a passion for liver but this pate recipe has been enjoyed by those in my life who do.

I hope you enjoy it!

LIver Pate with cucumbers

Persons

Ingredients

16 oz Chicken Livers
6 slices Bacon, diced
½ cup Onion, chopped
1 tsp Garlic, minced
2 Tbsp Fresh Rosemary
2 Tbsp Fresh Thyme
1/3 cup Olive Oil
1 tsp Kosher Salt
½ cup Beef Bone Broth

Instructions

In a large skillet, cook bacon. Transfer cooked bacon to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb excess bacon grease. Drain most of bacon grease from the pan, leaving enough to cook the onions & garlic. Add onions and cook 2 to 3 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and chicken livers. Cook thoroughly for 8 to 10 minutes.
Add Bacon, liver with onions and garlic and all remaining ingredients to a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend to a smooth, creamy texture.
Serve liver pate spread on slices of apple, cucumber or gluten free crackers such as Mary’s Gone Crackers brand. Scooping pate with carrot sticks and celery makes a healthy snack or lunch addition.
