We kept the creamy texture of this lightened classic by using low-fat sour cream and fat-free cream cheese instead of butter and heavy cream. Serve this rich appetizer with a French bread baguette, coarse-grained mustard, and gherkins. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon butter or stick margarine |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
2 garlic cloves, chopped |
4 ounces chicken livers |
2 tablespoons port or other sweet red wine |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
dash of ground cinnamon |
dash of ground allspice |
1 tablespoon low-fat sour cream |
1 pound boned, skinned chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch pieces |
1 (8-ounce) block fat-free cream cheese, cubed and softened |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°. 2. Melt butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and sauté 4 minutes. Add chicken livers; cook 2 minutes or until livers lose their pink color. Add port, and cook 3 minutes or until most of liquid evaporates. Cool. 3. Place chicken liver mixture, salt, and next 5 ingredients (salt through allspice) in a food processor or blender; process until smooth, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Add the sour cream, chicken breast, and cream cheese; process until smooth, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Spread chicken mixture into an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray. 4. Bake at 325° for 1 hour or until a thermometer registers 170°. Cool; cover and chill 8 hours. Serve at room temperature. |
