Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Melt 2 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the 1/2 sliced onion and 1 minced garlic clove; cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add the 8 oz chicken livers and cook until browned on the outside but still slightly pink inside, about 6-8 minutes. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Transfer the liver mixture to a food processor. Add the remaining 2 tbsp butter and blend until completely smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.

  4. Step 4

    Taste and adjust seasoning. Spoon the pâté into a serving dish and chill for at least 30 minutes before serving with crackers.
