Ingredients

6 medium scallions, trimmed, cleaned and minced (1/2 cup)
3 cloves garlic, peeled, crushed and chopped (1 tablespoon)
1 medium tomato (7 ounces), halved, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 cup)
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 3/4 pounds chicken livers, halved and trimmed to remove any sinew, fat or dark spots (about 1 1/2 pounds trimmed weight)

Steps:

Mix all the ingredients except chicken livers together in a bowl large enough to hold the livers for serving. Set the mixture aside. Combined ingredients should yield 1 1/2 cups of sauce.
About 10 minutes before serving time, bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the chicken livers and bring the water back to a boil (this will take about 3 minutes). Boil the livers for 1 minute; then, drain them. (They should still be pink in the center.)
Add the chicken livers to the bowl containing the sauce, mix well, and serve as is or over boiled rice.
