Liverless Rumaki

Chef #198343's Note:

There are many recipes for Rumaki that all call the use of chicken liver. Not everyone likes chicken livers. This version of Rumaki does not use chicken livers and is different then any Rumaki recipe that I have found. I got the recipe from my sister in law many years ago. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Old Sarge USMC
