Rumaki 3 Ways 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:

• Stir together the teriyaki sauce and garlic in a medium bowl, then add the livers and water chestnuts. Toss to coat. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Soak 24 toothpicks in cold water for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the boiler. Remove the livers and water chestnuts from the marinade and discard the marinade. Lay 1 bacon half on a cutting board and place 1 piece of liver and 1 water chestnut in the center. Fold one side of the bacon over them, and thread a toothpick through the bacon, then the chestnut and liver. Wrap the remaining bacon edge around this parcel and secure on the toothpick. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 24 rumaki.
• Broil the rumaki on a rack set over a baking sheet (covered with aluminum foil for easy clean up) 2 inches from the heat for 4 minutes. Flip them over and broil for 2 minutes more. Brush the rumaki with additional teriyaki sauce and return to the broiler for 2 more minutes. Place on a serving tray and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Marinate chicken livers and bacon in soy sauce 4 hours in refrigerator. Toward end of marinating period, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Skewer liver, chestnut, and bacon, and dip in brown sugar. Arrange rumaki on wire rack over shallow roasting pan and bake about 30 minutes, turning occasionally, until bacon is crisp.

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:

• In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, mayonnaise and chili sauce. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil; set aside., Place a water chestnut and pineapple chunk on each piece of bacon; roll up bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on a broiler pan. Broil 4-5 in. from the heat 4-5 minutes on each side or until bacon is crisp. Serve with sauce.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Soak approximately 50 toothpicks in water. Clean chicken livers and remove stringy or fatty parts. Cut each liver into 3 pieces. You should have approximately 24 pieces of liver. Cut bacon strips in half (if extra long bacon, cut in thirds). Cut water chestnuts in half.
• 2. Assemble Rumaki: Wrap each piece of liver with a strip of bacon, securing with a toothpick. In about 1/3 of them, add a piece of water chestnut before securing with the toothpick. In one third of them, add a small chunk of pineapple instead of the water chestnut. With the remaining pieces of bacon, wrap a pineapple chunk (alone) or a water chestnut alone and secure each with a tooth pick.
• 3. Spray the rack of a broiler pan with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange rumaki on rack and cook in a hot oven for approximately 30-40 minutes, turning once or twice to be sure bacon is crispy all over. When done, remove to paper towels to drain for a few minutes before arranging on platter. I like to use a paper doily or two to line the platter, as it also will soak up some of the drippings. Arrange Rumaki into two sections, grouping those with liver together, and those with only water chestnuts or pineapple chunks together.
• 4. Stir together Dipping Sauce ingredients -except liquor- in small saucepan, and put on medium - low heat. Cook until sugar and preserves are completely melted. Simmer slowly for about 20 minutes to reduce liquids slightly. Set aside until Rumaki comes out of the oven.
• 5. Add whiskey or bourbon to dipping sauce and bring to a rapid boil for approximately 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent boiling over. Cool for 10 minutes, then pour into small serving dish. I use a footed glass bowl that fits into the center of the platter holding the rumaki.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut each slice of bacon in half. Wrap one water chestnut in 1of the pieces of bacon, making sure to overlap. Secure the bacon with a toothpick and put it on a sheet pan. Repeat the process with the remaining water chestnuts, pineapple chunks and scallops.
• Put the pan into the preheated oven and bake until the bacon is crisp, about 20 minutes. Remove, let cool 10 minutes and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix together the soy, sherry, 3 T of brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and oils in a resealable plastic bag.
• Add chicken livers and mix gently.
• Refrigerate 6 hours or overnight.
• Preheat broiler or over grill to high.
• Drain marinade from chicken livers, reserving 1/4 cup.
• Chop larger chicken livers in half or thirds.
• Cut each bacon slice into 2 pieces.
• Place 1 slice of water chestnut on top of each 1/2 piece of bacon.
• Top with a chicken liver and fold sides of bacon over.
• Run a toothpick through the rumaki to secure it.
• Lay each rumaki on a greased baking sheet (one with sides to catch drippings) or you may also line the pan with quick release foil.
• Mix together the 1/4 cup reserved marinade with 1/4 cup brown sugar until blended.
• Baste the rumaki with this mixture and set aside.
• Broil/grill rumaki for 8-10 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
• During this time, drain any accumulated bacon drippings (or it will smoke); also baste frequently during cooking, and turn rumaki over as they brown.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Place piece of pineapple in center of each bacon strip, wrap, and secure with toothpick.
• Place rumaki on broiler pan or shallow baking pan and broil, about 5 or 6 inches from heat, until bacon is crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Alternatively, bake in 375°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot.
