Instructions
- Mix the peri peri ingredients together.
- Using a paring knife, clean livers well of any fat, green spots, or large veins.
- Add the chicken livers to a zip lock bag and pour the peri peri over. Seal the bag tightly and place in the fridge for at least an hour. Longer if possible.
- Once the chicken livers are marinated, drain off the marinade into a large pan, add the can of tomato paste, bring the marinade to a boil, then turn down the heat and reduce to a thick sauce.
- Preheat a large heavy bottom pan over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil. Add the onion, and cook until tender (approximately 7 minutes). Increase heat to medium-high, and add the chicken livers and mushrooms. Fry for 10-15 minutes.
- Add the cooked chicken livers to the reduced peri peri sauce and stir to combine.
- Check seasoning. Serve immediately.
