Ingredients

Chicken Gizzards
  • 1 pound chicken gizzards pre-cleaned*
  • Oil spray
Breadcrumbs Mixture
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Batter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard I used yellow mustard, but you can use dijion or other mustard
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
Optional for serving
  • Chopped parsley for serving
  • hot sauce for dipping

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cut each gizzard into 2 pieces. Add them to a saucepan with water. Bring to boil, then lower the heat. Cover with a lid and cook for about 1 hour until tender. Check from time to time and make sure there's enough water. Add more if needed. (Note: each gizzard is cut open in the middle so it's naturally 2 connected parts in one gizzard.)
  2. In a small bowl, combine batter ingredients and whisk until combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix together Panko breadcrumbs and garlic powder.
  4. About 15 minutes before the gizzards are ready, heat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  5. Once the chicken gizzards become tender, drain the water and add them to the batter and toss to coat.
  6. Take each piece of the chicken gizzard with tongs and place it into the breadcrumbs mixture.
  7. Sprinkle with more breadcrumbs to cover completely. Then press down to adhere. Repeat until all pieces are coated.
  8. Arrange gizzards on the baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking oil spray.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip halfway through. (Broil in the last 1-2 minutes for a golden crispy crumb! Watch very carefully as it can be burned easily.)

Notes

  • lean them and trim the excess fat and gristle. (Make sure to clean them one by one and remove any leftover dirty part.)
  • *Most of the chicken gizzards from the grocery store are pre-cleaned. If yours are not, you'll need to clean them and trim the excess fat and gristle. (Make sure to clean them one by one and remove any leftover dirty part.)
  • These chicken gizzards are best served immediately. If you need to reheat them, you can bake them at 400°F for 15 minutes or until crispy.
