1/2 ts Salt

pieces, discarding the core. Cut the liver and
pancetta into 1/2-inch pieces. Thread onto skewers,
alternating kidney, pancetta and liver. Put the
skewers in a shallow glass baking dish and sprink- le
with the salt, pepper, olive oil and thyme.

Grill over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Do
not overcook.

Makes six 8-inch brochettes.
