(paleo, keto, AIP, dairy-free)
Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons organic ghee
- 2 medium shallots, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 pound organic chicken livers
- 1 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves, chopped
- 2 tsp sage
- 2 tsp dulse granules (seaweed)
- 1/2 tsp Himalayan salt ( add more to taste)
Instructions:
- In large skillet on medium heat melt 3 tablespoons of the ghee. Add the shallots, and sauté them until translucent, being careful not to allow them to brown. Add the livers and decrease to low heat and as they cook add the thyme, sage and dulse. Occasionally stirring the livers around in the skillet with a spoon, cook for approximately 5 minutes (or until no red juice comes out of the livers)
- Tip: Don't over cook the liver! They should still be pink inside and will continue to cook in the next step.
- Remove the pan from the stove, and put its contents into a blender or food processor, along with the remaining butter and salt. Purée until smooth, adding a little more melted ghee if necessary.
- Taste and adjust salt to taste.
- Chill before serving or serve warm. Enjoy with sliced carrots, cucumbers, crackers or toast.
Storage tips: Pack the leftover pâté into small serving sized glass jars or ramekins, smooth the top with a spatula and cover top with 1/4 inch of melted ghee to keep freshness. Seal jars or cover ramekins tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. They keep in the refrigerator for 1-2 days and in the freezer for 1-2 months.
