Original Recipe Yield 24 rumaki
 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups teriyaki sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 12 ounces fresh chicken livers, halved
  • 1 (4 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and sliced
  • 12 slices bacon, cut in half
  • 1 quart oil for frying

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
