Directions: |
Directions:Cut chicken livers into 24 (roughly 1/2-inch) pieces. Stir together soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, and curry powder. Add livers and water chestnuts and toss to coat. Marinate, covered and chilled, 1 hour. While livers marinate, soak toothpicks in cold water 1 hour. Drain well. Preheat broiler. Remove livers and chestnuts from marinade and discard marinade. Place 1 piece of bacon on a work surface and put 1 piece of liver and 1 chestnut in center. Wrap bacon around liver and chestnut and secure with a toothpick. Make 23 more rumaki in same manner. Broil rumaki on rack of a broiler pan 2 inches from heat, turning once, until bacon is crisp and livers are cooked but still slightly pink inside (unwrap 1 to check for doneness), 5 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately. *see note below on variation to create "mock" Rumaki |

Notes: This is a delightful appetizer, especially if you like chicken livers. For those that don't, you can leave out the chicken liver and simply wrap the water chestnut directly in bacon strip and proceed with the remainder of the recipe as written. Either way, depending on your preference, this is a terrific appetizer.
