Impress your guests with a new appetizer! Grassfed Liver Pate is amazing and very healthy!
Ingredients:
- 1 pkg 3T Ranch Liver (typically around 1 lb)
- 2 tbls avocado oil
- 1 finely chopped shallot
- 4 finely chopped garlic cloves
- 1/4 cup of red cooking wine (Holland)
- 2 sprigs thyme – just leaves
- 2 tbls grassfed butter
- 2-4 tbls heavy cream or milk
- salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
- Defrost the liver.
- Heat up cast iron pan and put in avocado oil.
- Cut up liver into chunks.
- Cook liver over medium heat for about 5 minutes, put in shallot, garlic and thyme. Do not season at this time. The salt would make the liver tough. Cook the liver all the way through.
- Deglaze the pan with the red wine. Cook for additional couple of minutes.
- Salt and pepper to taste. (It will need good amount of salt).
- Put all of it into the food processor along with 2 tbls butter and 2 tbls heavy cream and pulse until smooth. (If your mixture is still too think, pour in additional 2 tbls of heavy cream. Heavy cream works better in this recipe than milk. It will make your pate creamier).
- I have served the liver pate on homemade crackers with softened blue cheese and couple of thyme leaves for color.
