Redneck Chef Chicken Liver Pâté




Try this on homemade crackers, celery, carrots and be sure to serve with plenty of hot pickled peppers and cold beer.

1 lb chicken livers
2 bay leaves
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1 c chicken broth
1/2 onion, sliced
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp good dry white wine
1/2 tsp pepper
Cayenne to taste
Nutmeg to taste
Salt to taste
1 tablespoons garlic, chopped
1 stick butter, cold and diced

Place all ingredients through chicken broth in a saucepan and simmer until chicken is done. About 10-15 minutes. Strain, and place contents in a food processor. Saute the onions and garlic in butter until caramelized (15-20 minutes). Add them to the food processor. Add the wine, and process until smooth. Add butter, cold in pieces until smooth. Mixture will be a bit soupy, but once cooled in the fridge, it will harden up nicely into a good paste easy to dip or spread.
