Ingredients
- 500 g Chicken livers, cleaned and roughly chopped
- 1 Medium onion, diced
- 6 Sage leaves
- 7 Anchovy fillets in oil
- 2 tbs Capers in vinegar
- Salt and fresh black pepper to taste
- Primo Estate La Biondina Colombard
- JOSEPH First Run Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Directions
Fry the onion in a little JOSEPH olive oil until transparent. Add chicken livers and quickly brown before turning the heat down. Add sage leaves, anchovies, capers and a splash of La Biondina Colombard. Season with salt and pepper to taste but remember that the capers and anchovies are already very salty.
Continue to warm over a low heat for 5 to 10 minutes until livers are cooked then purée the mixture. Drizzle in enough JOSEPH Olive Oil to make a smooth paste. Serve on fresh continental bread.
Buon appetito!
