Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Prepare all the ingredients.

Step 2

Pour cold water over the drumstick and wings and simmer on low heat for 40 minutes.

Step 3

Finely chop half of the onion and the thyme leaves; you can add the other half of the onion to the broth with the chicken.

Step 4

Strain the broth; it will be needed for the recipe.

Step 5

Remove the fillet from the bones and slice it.

Step 6

Sauté the onion in butter. Once it becomes translucent, add the garlic, pressed through a garlic press, and cook for another minute.

Step 7

Add the chopped chicken, breadcrumbs, thyme, strained broth, and brandy to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 8

Cover the skillet with a lid and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Blend the mixture until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add more chicken broth. Taste the pâté and add salt if necessary.

Step 10

Spoon the pâté into molds and chill for 2 hours or until the mixture is completely cool. Serve with toasted baguette.
