Chicken livers
Bacon
Toothpicks

Cut liver into pieces (size is your preference). Cut bacon strips into thirds or halves, depending on the size of your liver pieces. Wrap a piece of bacon around a piece of liver and secure with a toothpick. Sautee in a skillet until bacon is done to your liking. The liver will be done at this point too. Place on paper towels to absorb any excess grease or juice. Serve warm as an appetizer.
