  • 2 tablespoons brandy
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

Instructions:

  1. In a large frying pan, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and cook until softened.
  2. Add the chicken livers to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they are browned on the outside but still slightly pink on the inside.

  7. Transfer the pate to a serving dish or individual ramekins. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  8. Serve the chicken liver pate with toasted bread or crackers, and enjoy
