Lately, I’ve been realizing more and more that I need to focus on eating more nutrient dense food.
That term gets thrown around a lot in the Paleo/Real Food Community for a reason; nutrient dense foods are amazingly good for you.
I started making broth again, making sure I was getting in my cod liver oil/butter oil and eating liver a couple times a week.
This is such a simple recipe but man, it is so good that when I make a batch, I cannot stop eating it.
It makes me feel like running when I know I should walk, and it is just packed with a ton of goodness for your body.
There is a pound of bacon in this recipe – yes, a pound and it helps a lot with the flavor.
If you’re new to organ meats, then reduce the amount of liver in order to build up your tolerance. Your body will thank you for it!

This is just what I was looking for! (I added a good grating of nutmeg at the end, as i love nutmeg in chicken liver pate) I am dairy free, and have missed chicken liver pate so much. Thank you!

I've been wanting to make this all week and finally got to it this morning before breakfast. I've only ever had chicken liver "hidden" in other foods, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I liked it just plain and will probably grow to like it even better, but I really enjoyed it right out of the food processor topping a fried egg with sauteed avocados and mushrooms. It gave the meal a whole new depth of flavor. Thanks for the recipe. Definitely quick and easy!

floured and fried chicken livers, well done until all redness inside is gone, then just before done, pouring on scrambled eggs is my favorite way to eat chicken livers. The tastes go so well together.
