Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons cooking sherry
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• 1 pound chicken livers
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup chopped onion
• 0.75 cup butter, softened
• 0.125 teaspoon ground mace

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine livers and sliced onion in a medium saucepan. Pour in about 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until liver is tender, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the heat and drain. Discard sliced onion, and remove and discard any hard portions of the livers.

Step 2

Process cooked livers in a food processor until smooth. Add butter, chopped onion, sherry, butter, salt, pepper, and mace; pulse to blend. Form mixture into a mound with lightly greased hands. Place onto a serving platter; cover and chill for 1 hour before serving.
