Ingredients

  • 1 x Italian baguette loaf cut into 1/4" to 1/2" diagonal slices Extra virgin olive oil for brushing
  • 2 Tbsp. bacon fat or possibly butter
  • 1/2 x yellow onion chopped
  • 1 lb chicken livers cleaned, trimmed, and minced
  • 1/2 c. Cognac or possibly brandy
  • 8 x fresh sage leaves chopped
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. capers liquid removed
  • 1 tsp salt Freshly-grnd white pepper to taste

Directions

  1. For the Crostini: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Set the slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush with the extra virgin olive oil. Bake till light brown on both sides, turning once, about 4 min. Alternately the bread may be browned on a grill, that will impart a light smoky flavor.
  2. For the Chicken Liver Spread: In a large skillet heat the bacon fat over medium-high heat, add in the onion and saute/fry till soft, about 3 min. Add in the chicken livers, Cognac and sage to the pan and saute/fry till the livers are browned on all sides but still slightly pink in the center. Stir in the capers and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  3. Transfer the chicken liver mix to a food processor and puree on high speed. Allow to cold before spreading on the Crostini.
  4. This recipe yields 8 servings.
