Cooking method

Cooked right, chicken gizzards make a truly delicious dish — good enough to serve to guests. Gizzards are really just muscle, though the flavor is a bit different. A friend shared this method with me. First, clean the gizzards well, peel off the membrane, then rinse them and simmer in lightly salted water until tender. Once the water comes to a boil, keep them going for about another 40 minutes. You can save the broth for soup if you like; cool the gizzards and slice them. Meanwhile, dice or thinly slice the onion (I chop mine fine) and fry it in oil until golden. Make the broth by dissolving the bouillon cube in a cup of boiling water. Add the gizzards to the onion and pour in the broth. Lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper, then pour in the soy sauce. Mix and cook for another 10 minutes. When it's done, transfer the braised gizzards to a serving dish and sprinkle chopped fresh herbs over the top.
