- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 4 ounces chicken livers, patted dry and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

- 1/2 teaspoon dried sage, or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- Coarsely ground black pepper

- Discard all but 2 tablespoons of bacon fat from the skillet.
- Add the butter; heat until melted; add the onion; saute over medium heat until golden.
- Stir in the chicken livers; saute, stirring, just until cooked.
- Add the tomatoes and sage; cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.

- Cut bacon into 1/4-inch pieces and stir into sauce.
- Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine in plenty of boiling salted water until al dente, or firm to the bite, 2 minutes for fresh and 5 to 7 minutes for dried; drain.
