Fried Chicken Gizzards

INGREDENT

  • 1 lb chicken gizzards, cleaned
  • 1 cup buttermilk (for soaking)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for spice)
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • Oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Rinse chicken gizzards well and pat dry. Place in a bowl, cover with buttermilk, and let soak for at least 1 hour (or overnight in the fridge) to tenderize.
  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne.
  3. Remove gizzards from buttermilk, dip into beaten eggs, then dredge in seasoned flour until well coated.
  4. Heat oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Fry gizzards in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4–6 minutes.
  6. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  7. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Do you want me to make this extra crispy style (double dredged) or keep it simple?
