hicken is a healthy choice and did you know that chicken gizzards are one of the most nutritious parts of the chicken? Very high in protein, low in fat and many vitamins and minerals (including B12 - good for your brian health). Besides all that, the bonus is that they also are very tasty!!
Chicken Gizzards
Ingredients
• About 1 ½ lbs of chicken gizzards

• ½ TSP tobacco sauce (or to taste) (alternate - use a chili pepper or chili flakes)
• Salt to taste
• Optional - more vermouth or wine to de-glaze frying pan
Method
• Wash gizzards in cold tap water and pat them dry - set aside
• Put EVOO in a frying pan and add garlic - cook 30 seconds
• Add onions and cook till translucent
• Add vermouth (or wine) and cook 1 minute
• Add paprika, curry powder, and tobacco sauce, stir in to incorporate all ingredients, cook for a minute or 2
• Add gizzards, and toss them/mix them, to ensure they are all coated
• Continue to fry on med heat, stirring every so often, until cooked
• Remove from pan and into your serving platter

The gizzard is my favorite part (with the heart). I love the bouncy chew!

[@doreensherk287]

Yes I would give it a try!!

[@doreensherk287]

Yup!

[@gloschmitz7468]

I made this today. Very good.
As a child, I was the gizzard gal when my family butchered chickens. It was my job to clean them. Brings back memories.

So glad you enjoyed this episode and that it brought back some great memories for you 👍👍

Followed your recipe mostly but traded the alcohol for chicken stock. Next time will cut the curry in half but it was good. I make fried gizzards often and love those since I was a kid. Thank you for sharing this. 🙂

Just made some Turkey gizzards, boy were they big! May have to slice and try this recipie

[@divangibran8007]

How many glizzard is the maximum per day?

[@CookingwiththeCoias]

... suggest about 100 grams but remember, these are also high in cholesterol so daily is not recommended 👍

[@bozmerz4358]

If you would have cooked them Low and Slow they would be tender... high heat makes them tough and rubbery.

Thanks for sharing your tips with us 👍
