RUMAKI RECIPE - BACON WRAPPED



Rumaki Recipe - Bacon Wrapped image

Simple, but elegant easy holiday appetizer that will become your family favorite.

Provided by Steven Pennington

Categories     Holiday Appetizer     Holiday-Party-Game Day Appetizer

Time 33m

Number Of Ingredients 19

24 livers Chicken Livers
Bacon - Thin Strips (Cut in half lengthwise )
1 cup Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
½ Tablespoon Minced Ginger
1 teaspoon Chopped Garlic
24 sliced Water ChestNuts
Daikon Radish (Sliced)
Beef Tenderloin (cubed)
Cantaloupe (cubed)
Honeydew Melon (cubed)
Dates (whole)
Pickled Watermelon (cubed)
pinch Cayenne Pepper (optional)
1 cup Teriyaki Sauce
1 cup Hoisin Sauce
1 cup Grape Jelly w/ Chipotle in Adobo Sauce
1 cup BBQ Sauce
1 cup Maple Syrup

Steps:

  • Clean/remove as much excess from the livers as possible while keeping the livers as "Large" as possible.
  • Cutaway pieces that do not look like something you'd like to eat. Use a small knife and make small cuts where needed trying to keep the liver in tactic.
  • Combine the soy sauce, chopped garlic, brown sugar, and chopped ginger into a large bowl.Add the livers to the marinate. Place into the refrigerator for one hour.
  • Slice the bacon in half lengthwise. You do not want to use too much bacon or the cooking time will be longer. Which risks overcooking the livers or beef, or chicken.Cutting the bacon strips in half will make it easy to wrap each chicken liver tightly.
  • Lay one piece of bacon flat on a cutting board. Take a slice of water chestnut and place it at one end of the bacon strip. Add a piece of liver on top of the water chestnut. Tip: Add small slices of jalapeno
  • Next, roll the bacon starting at the end with the liver and roll the bacon on top of itself. No rules on how you wrap. Another option is wrapping the bacon in circles all around the liver.Secure with toothpicks
  • Place the rumaki on a cookie sheet. Or, I like using a wire rack so the rumaki isn't touching the cookie sheet. It helps crisp things up nicely.Bake @ 375 for 15 to 20 minutes
  • Add the glaze of choice after cooking. Use a paintbrush or spoon to cover.
  • Then place the rumaki back into the oven for 3 to 5 minutes to set the glaze.

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/3 cup teriyaki sauce, plus additional for basting
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/4 pound chicken livers, trimmed, rinsed and cut into 24 (1/2-inch) pieces
12 canned whole water chestnuts, drained and halved
12 slices bacon, halved crosswise

  • 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.

RUMAKI



Rumaki image

Rumaki first became popular during the "Tiki Bar" era of the mid-20th century -- a trend that managed to stick around for decades, because trends used to be able to do that. Nowadays food trends can last for mere hours, but with enough support we can bring rumaki back into the spotlight for weeks, or maybe even months! After all, a dish that's this good is never really out of style.

MARINATED WILD DUCK RUMAKI



Marinated Wild Duck Rumaki image

Wild duck has a "liver-y" flavor and look, which I do not like. However, my husband is a duck hunter so I had to figure out what to do with his catch. I came up with this recipe years ago and make it as an appetizer on Thanksgiving or Christmas. The marinade takes care of the gamey flavor, so even I enjoy eating these tasty little treats. My husband and 3 boys always gobble these down in one sitting. It's great finger food. You can adjust the marinade by tasting it before putting the duck in it. Make sure you inspect the duck for BBs! This recipe requires marination overnight.

Provided by Gina Farina

Categories     Poultry

Time 1h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 -10 wild duck breasts, skinned and rinsed
1 lb bacon
1/4 cup orange juice
1 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup dry sherry (optional) or 1/4 cup Bourbon (optional)
1/4 cup peanut oil
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1/8 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon chili paste (to taste)
salt
toothpick
citrus-based dipping sauce

Steps:

  • Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
  • Cut the duck breasts into pieces that are about 1/2" x 1/2" x 1-1/2". Place in marinade overnight in the fridge (ziploc works great).
  • Cut the bacon in half so that you get twice as many short pieces. Fry until half-way cooked. This is necessary if you want the bacon to be equally cooked as the duck, otherwise the fatty part will be mostly uncooked and too chewy.
  • After marinading overnight, drain the duck. Wrap each piece of duck with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick (make sure it goes completely through).
  • Place wrapped pieces on a foil-lined cookie sheet that has sides. You can put quite a few on a sheet and they will still cook well.
  • Bake at 325ºF for 30 minutes or until the duck and bacon are done.
  • Serve with a tangy, slightly spicy-hot lemon, orange or apricot dipping sauce, like LeAnn Chin's Lemon Chicken Sauce or Panda Express Orange Sauce. Be sure to serve with sauce!

TENDER BAKED CHICKEN LIVER RUMAKI



Tender Baked Chicken Liver Rumaki image

This version of these popular little hors d'oeuvres was shared with me by Chef Claude of the Pinetop Country Club chef, here in Arizona. He bakes his rumaki which leaves them still soft and moist when fully cooked rather than a hard, dry lump. My husband and I love this version and can make a meal of them! Since these marinate, you must start them early. Marinating time is not included in the preparation time.

Provided by Lorraine of AZ

Categories     Chicken Livers

Time 1h15m

Yield 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb chicken liver
1 lb bacon (your favorite)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Bourbon (optional)

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right duck breast: Look for a duck breast that is about 8 ounces and has a nice layer of fat on it. This will help keep the duck breast moist during cooking.
  • Score the duck breast: This will help the marinade penetrate the duck breast and cook it evenly.
  • Marinate the duck breast for at least 30 minutes: This will help to flavor the duck breast and make it more tender.
  • Cook the duck breast over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the duck breast and cook it quickly without overcooking it.
  • Let the duck breast rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the duck breast and make it more tender.
  • Serve the duck breast with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for duck breast include roasted potatoes, asparagus, and a red wine sauce.

Conclusion:

Duck breast is a delicious and versatile dish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are grilling, roasting, or pan-searing, there are a few things to keep in mind to ensure that your duck breast turns out perfectly. By following these tips and using a flavorful marinade, you can cook a duck breast that is moist, tender, and packed with flavor.
