How to make Chicken Terrine
- Step 1
Place the washed chicken livers in a ceramic or plastic bowl. Add the finely chopped onion, bay leaf, chopped thyme, white pepper, salt, vinegar, and Port wine. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the mixture marinate for at least 8 hours.
- Step 2
Remove the chicken livers from the marinade and chop them finely.
- Step 3
Chop the chicken breast and smoked bacon. Season with salt and pepper, and place them in a bowl with a small amount of the marinade from the chicken livers.
- Step 4
Combine the chopped chicken livers with the chicken breast and bacon mixture. Transfer the mixture to a greased loaf pan (such as a standard English pudding mold).
- Step 5
Cover the pan with aluminum foil and cook in a water bath in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for one hour.
- Step 6
Remove the terrine from the oven and water bath, and let it cool in the refrigerator for at least four hours before unmolding.
