Notes
- To clean chicken gizzards, start by placing them in a bowl of cold water and gently rubbing them with your hands to remove any dirt. Next, use your fingers to pull off the tough, white membrane on the outside and discard it. Trim away any extra fat or connective tissue with a knife, and rinse the gizzards again under cold water to ensure they’re clean. Finally, pat them dry with paper towels before cooking.
