Chicken gizzards are a popular ingredient in many cuisines around the world. They are a part of the digestive system of a chicken and are rich in flavor and nutrients. Gizzards have a firm texture and a slightly gamey taste, which makes them a favorite among those who enjoy offal.

To prepare chicken gizzards, start by cleaning them thoroughly. Remove any excess fat or membranes and rinse them under cold water. Some people prefer to boil the gizzards for a few minutes before using them in recipes to further tenderize them.
