Steps:

If the chicken livers are large, cut them in half. Combine the flour, paprika, salt and 1/2 tsp. of the pepper in a mixing bowl. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Dredge the livers in the flour mixture, and then sauté until browned, about 5 minutes. Raise the heat slightly, and add the tomatoes, vinegar, chicken stock, wine and rosemary. Simmer until slightly thick, about 5 minutes. While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to instructions. Drain, and toss with the sauce. Add the remaining 1 tsp. pepper, and serve immediately.
