Chicken liver pate-finished product

This delicious, delicate, always successful, and certainly impressive dish, used to be one of my go-to appetizers for years! It used to be my sister-in-law Katheline’s favourite as well, and since it freezes so well, we always made sure that one of us, had a few hidden dishes stached away in her freezer for last minute emergencies.

Then somehow it fell off my horizon, and I forgot all about it, until last night! when my niece-in-law asked me for the recipe. So… here it is Claudia, enjoy! And thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten how much I love it!!!
