Szechuan Chicken Livers image

This is a very versatile recipe. Instead of serving the livers over rice or pasta make crepes and fill them with these tasty livers. Another idea make an omelet and fold in the livers as your flavor accent. Or have them as a side dish on a buffet table. I haven't made this recipe for years - it is one of my earlier postings and I found that there were a few things that needed clarification so I have made some corrections
