Rumaki Chicken Livers Sea Scallops Or Both Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, canola oil, sesame oil, reserved pineapple juice, vinegar, black pepper, garlic and grated ginger in a bowl. Add the water chestnuts and marinate for 2 hours at room temperature.
• Cut the pineapple chunks in half and set aside. Cut the bacon strips in half and set aside. Cut the chicken livers into 1/2-inch pieces and set aside.
• To assemble: Lay out a half strip of bacon. Put a slice of pineapple at one end, topped by a slice of water chestnut and a piece of chicken liver. Roll up the bacon and seal with a toothpick. Repeat until all the ingredients are used.
• Place on a parchment-lined sheet pan and brush with the marinade. Bake, brushing with marinade every 10 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the livers are just cooked but still slightly pink, 35 to 40 minutes. The last 10 minutes, brush with the marinade and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together teriyaki sauce, garlic and ginger root. Place chicken livers and water chestnuts in the mixture. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours.
• Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Wrap each half slice of bacon around one chicken liver half and a slice of water chestnut. Secure by skewering with small skewers or toothpicks.
• Carefully lower skewered wraps into the hot oil in small batches. Deep fry 3 to 4 minutes, or until bacon is evenly brown and of desired crispness. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Place bacon strips on frying pan with low flame and cover pan.
• Melt some butter and add the soy sauce, ginger, sherry and garlic in another frying pan with the chicken livers, scallops, or both, on a medium flame. DO NOT ALLOW THE BACON TO GET FULLY DONE, ONLY PARTIALLY DONE.
• While bacon is still soft and only partially done, remove and place strips onto a paper towel to slightly cool.
• When livers and scallops are done on both sides, remove from flame and also set aside onto paper towel to slightly cool.
• Slice the chicken livers and scallops into somewhat flat pieces.
• Take a piece of chicken liver or scallop, and a slice of water chestnut and wrap either 1/2 strip of bacon or a whole strip of bacon around the liver and water chestnut, securing it with a wooden toothpick. Place the Rumaki onto a cookie sheet, and continue this same procedure, until the cookie sheet is filled and the livers, scallops, and bacon are gone. Set the cookie sheet with all of the Rumaki aside.
• About 20 minutes before company arrives, preheat oven to 450 degrees. About 15 minutes before company arrives, place the cookie sheet with the Rumaki into the oven for 10 minutes, and then raise the oven to broil for about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from oven and serve on a hot plate. Leave the toothpicks in place for serving.

Steps:

• Microwave bacon on high for 2-2 1/2 minutes, or until partially cooked but still flexible.
• Top each scallop with some of the onion and ginger.
• Drizzle evenly with lemon juice. Wrap a bacon piece around each scallop, and secure with wooden toothpicks.
• Grill scallops on grill tray 2-3 minutes on each side, or until done.
• Or broil 3 inches from heat for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bacon is crisp and scallops are cooked.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Garnish with chives, if desired.

Steps:

• Wash and trim chicken livers; cut each in half. Cut bacon strips in half and precook strips halfway. This is important since otherwise they would not finish cooking in a timely manner when baked. Be sure not to cook the bacon till it is crispy or it will not wrap around the livers properly.
• Wrap one bacon strip around each liver half. Some people also include a water chestnut half with the liver, but I do not.
• Fasten bacon around liver with a toothpick.
• In a bowl or large plastic storage bag, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar and bourbon, if used. Add the prepared rumaki and cover the bowl or seal the bag. Allow to marinate for 6 to 8 hours or two hours at the least. Drain well.
• Arrange rumaki on a baking sheet with sides. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 1/2 hour or until cooked as desired.
