Instructions

1. 1

   You will need two frying pans for this recipe, or do it in two parts.

2. 2

   Part 1. In one frying pan, sauté the onions two tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt for 4-5 minutes, until golden and softened. Then add the garlic and stir for a minute. Follow by honey, tamari (or coconut aminos) and fish sauce. Stir through and take off the heat.

3. 3

   Part 2. In another skillet, heat coconut oil or olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken livers and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on each side. Then transfer to the pan with the onions and place back on the heat. Stir for about 20-30 seconds to coat the liver pieces in the onion and the sauce. Garnish with some chopped spring onions/scallions, sesame seeds and chilli.
