Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Arrange the baguette slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and brush both sides lightly with 2 tbsp of the olive oil. Bake for 8–10 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the rounds are golden and crisp at the edges. Set aside.

Pat the chicken livers dry with paper towels. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
