- To make the onions: Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and add the onions. Season the onions with salt and bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Cover and sweat the onions for 15 to 20 minutes.

- Add the chicken livers, turn up the heat and saute for 3 to 5 minutes and cook until the livers are about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way done. Add the wine and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the wine has reduced by half, the mix should still be pretty soupy.
- Transfer everything to a food processor and puree until smooth. Season with a little salt, if needed, and loosen with a little olive oil if needed.

CHICKEN LIVER AND CARAMELIZED ONION CROSTINI
A good recipe for chicken liver pâté is critical. This is not your grandmother's chopped liver; my version is supremely silky and light, with a hint of brandy. The chicken liver as well as the crostini toasts can easily be made a day ahead: refrigerate the liver, pressing plastic wrap directly on the surface, and store the crostini in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the onion and sauté until caramelized, about 10 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Transfer a quarter of the caramelized onion to a plate and set aside for the garnish.
- Add the garlic and chicken livers to the pan. Sauté for a couple of minutes until the livers begin to brown but are still slightly pink in the center; season with salt and pepper. Carefully, pour the brandy into the pan. If it flames up, shake the pan to put out the fire. Cook for a minute until the alcohol has evaporated. Mix in the mustard and stock, and continue to cook until the liquid is reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes; it should still be pretty soupy. Don't cook the livers fully through as they tend to dry out and get a grainy texture. Stir in the heavy cream.
- Transfer everything to a food processor and puree for a minute or two until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the processor as needed; season again with a little salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
- To serve, spoon a generous tablespoon of the chicken liver on each crostini and top with the reserved onions. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with parsley.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Brush the bread on both sides with olive oil and arrange side by side on a baking sheet; season lightly with salt and pepper. Bake until light brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Flip the slices over or rotate the pan if some are cooking faster than others. Let cool completely. Alternatively, you can brown the bread on a hot grill or with a panini press, which will impart a light smoky flavor.

Steps:
- Rinse the chicken livers under running water and pat dry with paper towel. Cut away any greenish discolored parts. Cut the onion in half and slice each half thinly. Mash the garlic with the flat blade of a knife and chop coarsely.
