1 can (12 oz.) water chestnuts
1 lb. bacon
1 tsp. anise seed
2 bay leaves
3 tbsp. brown sugar

Directions
Boil chicken livers and spices for 45 minutes. Drain. Cut the chicken livers into small chunks. Cut the water chestnuts into chunks about the same size as the chicken liver chunks. Wrap a piece of chicken liver and a piece of water chestnut with 1/2 strip of bacon and skewer with a toothpick.
