Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 8 minutes
Cooling & Chilling 3 hours 15 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients

  • cup grass-fed butter or ghee (for AIP / Whole 30, sub tallow or refined coconut oil)
  • 1 lb pastured chicken livers, *trimmed of connective tissue if desired
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1-2 tablespoons parsley or herbs of choice (omit for strict carnivore)
  • 2 Tbsp melted grass-fed butter or ghee (for AIP / Whole 30, sub tallow or refined coconut oil)

Instructions

  1. Add ⅓ cup butter to a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken livers, salt, and optional herbs.

  2. Cook livers on each side for about 3 minutes, or until just cooked through and they are tender. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes.

  3. Add the contents of the skillet to a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth.

  4. Spread the pate into single-serving sized ramekins or a larger food storage container or meatloaf dish.

  5. Pour 2 Tbsp melted butter over the top, and drop some fresh herbs into the butter if desired. Place in the fridge for 3 hours or until chilled.

Recipe Notes

For strict Carnivore: enjoy as-is with a spoon, with pork rind dippers, or slathered over a cooked steak.

For Animal-Based / Paleo / AIP: Enjoy with carrot sticks, cucumber slices, clean sweet potato chips, or Kalamata olives.

*Leaving the connective tissue on the livers rather than trimming them off adds more nutritional value to the pate. If you prefer, you can trim them off and add them to your bone broth-making scraps so that they don’t go to waste and you can reap the benefits in a different manner.
