Homemade Chicken Liver Pâté

Bring plenty of water to a boil in a pot. Clean and rinse the chicken livers well. Salt the boiling water, add the livers and cook them until done. Then drain.

Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallot and cook until soft and lightly golden. Add the garlic and cook briefly until fragrant.

Put the cooked livers and the sautéed shallot and garlic in a blender. Add the sour cream and the softened or slightly melted butter. Season with salt, freshly ground black pepper and thyme. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Transfer the pâté to a clean jar or a container with a tight lid. Let it cool, then store it in the fridge and eat it within a few days.
