Burger de Pâté

Burger de Pâté is a flavorful and healthy French twist on the classic burger, featuring a rich pâté made from lean meats and fresh herbs, topped with vibrant vegetables. Served on a whole-grain bun, this dish is both satisfying and nutritious, perfect for a light yet hearty meal.

Ingredients

• Lean chicken liver - 200 grams
• Shallot - 1 medium, finely chopped
• Garlic - 1 clove, minced
• Fresh thyme - 1 teaspoon, chopped
• Fresh parsley - 1 tablespoon, chopped
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Whole grain burger buns - 2
• Mixed greens (arugula, spinach) - 50 grams
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced

Steps

1. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic, sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add the chicken liver to the skillet, season with salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley. Cook until the liver is browned on the outside, about 5-7 minutes.

4. Toast the whole grain burger buns lightly in a toaster or on a skillet.
5. Spread a generous amount of the liver pâté on the bottom half of each bun.
