Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 500g chicken livers (2 x 250g packs)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 large red chili, chopped (use more if you want it hotter)
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tsp peri-peri spice or powder
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup fresh cream
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Olive oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Rinse the chicken livers under cold water.
  2. Trim off any tough bits and cut them in half. Set aside.
  3. Heat a little olive oil in a pan.
  4. Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until soft and fragrant.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes, brown sugar, tomato paste, and chopped chili.
  6. Cook for a minute or two.
  7. Pour in the white wine.
  8. Add salt, pepper, peri-peri spice, cayenne, paprika, and chopped parsley.
  9. Let it simmer for 10 minutes, stirring now and then.
  10. Stir in the fresh cream and let it gently bubble.

Optional: For a smoother sauce, blend it before adding the cream. You can also leave it chunky if you like more texture.

  1. Season the livers with salt, pepper, and 1 tsp chili powder. Heat olive oil in a separate pan.
  2. Cook the livers for about 2 minutes on each side, just enough to brown but not overcook.
  3. Pour the warm peri-peri sauce over the cooked livers and toss gently to coat.
  4. Sprinkle with more fresh parsley and serve hot with crusty Portuguese rolls, ciabatta, or steamed rice.
