Preparation:
Cut kidneys in half and remove fatty nerve piece. Place in ice water for 2 hours to remove blood. Drain and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. Heat oil in a 12- to 14-inch sauté pan until smoking. Add kidneys and, moving kidneys quickly, back and forth, sauté until golden brown, about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove to plate with slotted spoon and add garlic, onion and 2 tablespoons flour and cook until softened and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add sherry, tomato concasse, chicken stock, dried oregano and nutmeg and bring to a boil. Reduce by half. Return kidneys to pan, bring to boil and simmer 5 minutes. Check for seasoning and serve in a bowl with grilled bread.
