Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 Tbsp olive oil
1 large sprig rosemary, leaves removed from stem
1 tsp chopped rosemary
3 clove garlic very thinly sliced (garlic chips)
1/2 c finely minced red onion
3 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp coarse kosher salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 tsp new regine spice blend **or chinese 5 spice powder
8 oz chicken livers, cut into small pieces
1/4 c madeira
1/4 c chopped parsley
12 baguette slices, toasted or party rye slices
NEW REGINE SPICE BLEND;
3 Tbsp coriander seed
2 pieces star anise
1 Tbsp fennel seed
2 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp each or cumin seeds, ginger powder, black peppercorns, and white peppercorns
1 stick cinnamon broken in 1/2
1/2 tsp whole mace

Steps:

  • 1. Line a plate with paper towels to drain rosemary and garlic chips and set aside. --- Heat oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add rosemary leaves, sauté until crisp, about 30 seconds. Using slotted spoon, transfer sautéed rosemary to paper towels.
  • 2. Quickly add garlic slices and cook until just golden and crisp. DO NOT over-cook or they may become bitter. Add to plate with rosemary. --- Quickly add the red onion to same skillet sauté until golden, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the salt,pepper and spice powder.
  • 3. Add the minced garlic. liver and 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary( not form the sautéed). Cook until liver starts to color then turn. Continue cooking and turning until all sides are lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  • 4. Deglaze with Madeira, and cook until wine has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add chopped parsley and toss. Taste and season as needed. Spoon onto toasted baguette slices and sprinkle with crispy garlic and rosemary to garnish.
  • 5. Note: I like to add finely diced bacon in with the chicken liver and cook together until both are done.
  • 6. New Regime Spice Blend:** Grind all in spice grinder. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
