Chicken Liver Pâté Recipe

Chicken Liver Pâté

Until I switched my mindset around food, the thought of eating liver honestly grossed me out, now I see food as medicine that either contributes to healing or feeding my disease.

The herbs and apple sauce in this Chicken Liver Pâté recipe give it a delicious flavor and make it even tastier to enjoy with some sliced cucumber for a nutrient-dense breakfast.


Nutrient-density

Chicken Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods out there. I’m talking vitamins A, D, E, K, B12 and folic acid, and minerals like copper and iron. The best part is that these minerals play a big role in detoxifying our bodies.

This recipe’s level of ease is pretty high because once you’ve cooked your onion and garlic, all you need to do is add the rest of your AIP friendly ingredients.

Once your chicken livers are no longer running red, then you know its ready to blend and enjoy!
