A delightful and creamy chicken liver spread, perfect for appetizers or snacks.
Place the chicken livers and chopped onion in a saucepan and cover with water.
Chopping the onion helps it cook evenly and infuse its flavor into the livers.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Simmering gently ensures the livers are tender and not overcooked.
Drain the livers and onions, discarding the cooking liquid.
Let the livers cool slightly before blending to avoid splattering.
In a food processor, blend the livers and onions with brandy until smooth.
Scrape down the sides of the processor to ensure a uniform texture.
Add butter, salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the processor and blend until fully incorporated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld and the spread to firm up.
Serve with crackers, toasted bread, or vegetable sticks.
Garnish with fresh herbs for a touch of color and flavor.
