  • 3 1/2 Cups Cooking Oil

Instructions

  • Rinse the chicken gizzards, trim the fat and cut into smaller pieces.
  • In a saucepan bring the water to a boil and add in the salt.
  • Then add the chicken gizzards. Let the water come back to a boil and then reduce the heat to simmer.
  • Cover with a lid and simmer for 45 minutes.

  • In a wok pour in the cooking oil and turn the heat on to Medium High. Check to see if the oil is ready by placing a wooden chopstick into the oil. If bubbles appear around the chopstick then the oil is ready.
  • Just before adding in the chicken gizzards reduce the heat to Medium.
  • Fry until golden brown. It should only take a few minutes for it to turn color.
  • Drain on a paper towel. Serve immediately with ketchup or if you like it spicy then simply mix some tobasco with ketchup.

Notes

This Youtube video was made a few years ago so the Larry The Cable Guy chicken batter mix is no longer in stores. I had substituted it with the Louisiana Chicken Batter mix (Spicy) instead for this recipe. I now use this brand of chicken batter and I highly recommend it.  It can be purchased here on my website ! Just click on the photo of the Louisiana Chicken Batter mix located under the Youtube video up above.
