Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 lb chicken livers
4 x egg yolks
1 tbl extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup freshly-grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
3 lb medium-sized zucchini - (abt 5 or 6) halved lengthwise

2 tbl butter
1 x carrot finely diced
1 x celery rib finely diced
1/2 cup milk
Instructions:
Instructions: In a large bowl, mix the chicken livers, egg yolks, olive oil, bread crumbs, and cheese and season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture into 2 equal portions. Using 1 portion, stuff the hollowed-out canals of the zucchini halves. Set aside.

In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped zucchini flesh, carrot and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until the vegetables are softened and slightly browned, about 8 to 9 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add the remaining chicken livers-bread crumb mixture. Add the milk and cook, covered, 10 minutes.

Stir in the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, carefully place the zucchini halves in the sauce and cook, covered, 1 hour over medium-low heat. Arrange 2 zucchini halves and some of the sauce on each plate, topping with more Parmigiano-Reggiano, if desired, and serve immediately.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
