Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1/2 lb cooked ham, diced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices of bacon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mix together 1 lb of ground chicken, 1/2 lb of diced cooked ham, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup of chopped parsley, 1/4 cup of chopped chives, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Line the loaf pan with the bacon slices, leaving some overhang.
- Pour the chicken and ham mixture into the pan and fold the bacon over the top to cover the mixture.
- Cover the pan with aluminum foil and place it in a larger baking dish. Fill the larger dish with hot water to create a water bath.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until the terrine is firm and cooked through.
- Remove the terrine from the oven and let it cool. Place a weight on top of the terrine to press it down and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- To serve, unmold the terrine onto a serving platter and slice. Enjoy with crusty bread and a side of cornichons.
Terrine is a classic French dish dating back to the Middle Ages, traditionally made with ground meat, game, or seafood, mixed with spices, herbs, and sometimes vegetables. The mixture is packed into a loaf-shaped mold and cooked slowly in a water bath, resulting in a rich, flavorful, and beautifully layered dish. Renowned chefs like Paul Bocuse and Alain Ducasse have elevated the terrine to an art form, using premium ingredients and innovative flavor combinations. While the dish is popular throughout France, the best terrines can be found in the countryside regions like Alsace and Burgundy. The key to a perfect terrine lies in the quality of the ingredients and the precise layering technique. For a twist, consider making a vegetarian terrine using roasted vegetables and creamy goat cheese.
