Chicken Gizzards Recipes

Steps:

• Trim excess fat and gristle from chicken gizzards. Rinse under cold running water.
• Place gizzards in a pot of cold water. Bring water and gizzards to a rolling boil; continue to boil for about 15 minutes. Strain gizzards using a colander. Allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, combine the flour, seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a plastic bag. Shake well to combine.
• Preheat vegetable oil in a skillet with a lid over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Thoroughly coat gizzards with flour mixture and shake off excess. Gently lay the coated gizzards in the hot oil. Cook until brown. Reduce heat to medium; cover skillet with lid and cook another 10 minutes. Remove to paper towels to drain.

Steps:

• Place the chicken gizzards, celery, onion, bay leaves, and 1 teaspoon of celery salt into a saucepan, and pour in enough water to cover the gizzards by 1 inch. Bring the gizzards to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Pour in more water during simmering, if needed, to keep gizzards covered. Remove the gizzards to a bowl, discard the celery and onion, and reserve the broth.
• Season the gizzards with 1/2 teaspoon of celery salt, the seasoned salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, and hot sauce, stirring to combine well. Pour 1/3 cup of the reserved broth over the seasoned gizzards, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more, stirring often. (Save or freeze the remaining broth for another use, if desired.)
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the flour in a plastic bag, and pour in the gizzards with their seasoning. Shake the bag to thoroughly coat the gizzards with flour. Gently lower about 1/4 of the gizzards per batch into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes per batch. Drain the gizzards on paper towels, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Trim and discard as much connective tissue from gizzards as possible. Place gizzards in a slow cooker and season with chili powder, cumin, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Add onion and bell pepper.
• Mix condensed soup and diced tomatoes with chile peppers together in a bowl. Pour over the gizzards.
• Cook on High until fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours. Stir in sour cream and cook for 15 to 20 more minutes.

Steps:

• Wash gizzards in water and remove any fat or yellow tissue you can see. Cut each gizzard into 4 parts.
• Put gizzards in a pan of cold water and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Drain, rinse in cold water, and drain again.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until transparent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add gizzards, salt, and pepper; saute for 2 to 4 minutes. Add wine, 1 cup water, and tomatoes; cover and cook for 1 hour, adding more water as needed.
• Uncover, reduce heat to low, and cook until tender, 30 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Stir bacon into the gizzards and add parsley and chives before serving.

Steps:

• Bring 2 liters of Coca-Cola to a rolling boil in a large stockpot.
• Place rinsed gizzards in boiling pot.
• Bring back to a rolling boil, reduce heat to steady simmer for 35 to 45 minutes.
• Remove gizzards and drain.
• Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. The cooler the better.
• In the divided flour, mix the seasoning in one half (leaving the other half plain). Beat the eggs well-- place the butter in a medium-large skillet and heat until hot, while not burning.
• Take cooled gizzards, dredge in flour,egg, then seasoned flour.
• THIS IS THE VERY IMPORTANT PART!
• FLOUR-- EGG-- SEASONED FLOUR-- IN THAT ORDER!
• Place the gizzards in the fry pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally. Remove when golden brown.

Steps:

• 1. Bring the coke to a boil in a large pot. Add the gizzards and return to a boil. Then reduce to a steady simmer for 35-45 minutes. Remove the gizzards and drain. NOTE: I didn't use coca-cola, but did use chicken broth, I don't drink sodas.
• 2. Then, put the gizzards into the fridge and give them about 30 minutes so they are totally cold. In fact the colder the better.
• 3. Divide the flours between two shallow bowls and put the multi-spice in the third bowl. Put the plain flour in the first bowl and the beaten egg in the middle bowl.
• 4. roll each gizzard in the first bowl of flour, then the egg, then the seasoned flour. Doing it in order will ensure that the tenders come out right.
• 5. Place the gizzards in the hot butter (watch you don't burn the butter) and saute until golden. Cook 2-3 minutes and drain on a paper towel.
• 6. Serve with sweet and sour sauce or other sauce of your choice. If you don't mind chewing a little, these are very tasty and enjoyable.
• 7. Enjoy!
