RUMAKI

(Chicken Livers with Water Chestnuts)

6 chicken livers (about ½ lb.), each cut into 3 pieces

6 canned water chestnuts, drained, each cut into 3 pieces

9 slices bacon, cut in half lengths and partially cooked

6 scallions, cut in 1-in. pieces

Marinade:

¼ cup soy sauce

¼ cup dry sherry

1 tsp. brown sugar

2 Tbsp. sesame oil (optional)

1 slice fresh ginger root, 1 inch in diameter, ¼ in. thick (or) ½ tsp. powdered ginger

Combine soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar, and sesame oil in non-metallic container. Squeeze in fresh ginger root with garlic press. With sharp knife, cut a small incision in each piece of chicken liver and insert a piece of water chestnut. Place prepared chicken livers, precooked bacon slices, and scallion strips into marinade. Mix well to coat, and let stand for at least one hour, longer if possible. Drain, reserving marinade.

Wrap a bacon strip around each piece of chicken liver with water chestnut. Secure firmly with small well-soaked bamboo skewer. On 9-inch bamboo skewers place 3 wrapped chicken livers, alternating with scallion slices. Lay on platter and pour reserved marinade over all.

Place on oiled grill over medium coals for 5 or 6 minutes, turning to crisp bacon evenly. Serve each skewer on individual plate with small fork. These should be served hot!
