Did you know that if you eat chick
Chicken gizzards are one of the most overlooked yet nutritious and affordable cuts of meat.
Despite their classification as “offal,” which can sound unappetizing, gizzards are packed with protein,
vitamins, and minerals—making them a smart choice for both health and budget-conscious eaters.
A gizzard is a muscular part of a chicken’s digestive system that grinds food since chickens don’t have teeth.
This hardworking organ develops a firm texture, which gives gizzards their signature chewiness. With the right cooking methods, they become tender and flavorful.
Nutritionally, chicken gizzards offer impressive benefits. A small 3-ounce serving delivers about 20 grams of protein while remaining very low in fat—less than 3 grams per serving.
