For an authentic South African experience, substitute Peri Peri powder for cayenne pepper. Adjust the amount to your desired spice level. Ensure the chicken livers are thoroughly trimmed for the best texture and flavor. Do not overcook the livers, as they can become tough. They should be slightly pink inside but reach a safe internal temperature. Serve with crusty bread or rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
