Chicken Liver Mousse

Cummulative Rating
N/A
Difficulty
Medium

Ingredients

1/2 pound fresh chicken livers
1/2 pound unsalted butter
Salad oil as needed
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/8 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
Salt to taste
Fresh ground black pepper
Dash cayenne
Few grates of nutmeg
1-2 heads of butter lettuce, washed, dried and chilled
1 gf French bread baguette
Cornichons

Directions

Drain and divide pairs of chicken livers into individual portions. Discard any fat. Dry on paper towels. Cut larger livers in half.

Heat a 10 inch skillet. Add a splash of oil and butter. Sauté onions until tender and glossy. Add garlic and sauté until just translucent. Transfer hot onions to a side dish and sprinkle with thyme. Season with salt and pepper.

Raise heat to high and heat skillet until just hot. Add more butter and a splash of oil. Sear chicken livers on high heat until browned, but slightly pink inside. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.

Process cooled onions and livers in a food processor until smooth but with a slight gritty quality. Beat in rest of soft butter. Add cayenne, nutmeg and additional salt and pepper to taste.

Cut a piece of foil about 16 inches long. Form mousse into a 12 inch long roll about 2 inches thick. Fold foil down the length to seal tightly and twist ends to form a long, smooth sausage shape.

Chill mousse overnight or freeze it for later use.

At serving time slice mousse into 1/4 inch thick circles. To present individually; arrange 2-3 slices on a bed of butter lettuce; or arrange several slices with butter lettuce on a large platter. Serve mousse with thin slices of hot gf French bread baguette.
