Chicken gizzards are cut from the digestive tract of a chicken. Similar to a
stomach, the gizzard is used to grind up
the foods the bird eats. Chicken gizzards are a popular food throughout the world.
You can find them
sold as street food
in Haiti and Southeast Asia and in soup in Mexico. In
Africa, they're served fried, boiled, or grilled, and in Europe,
they're featured in salads and pรขtรฉs. In Bangladesh, they're made into a curry.
Since they're muscles, gizzards are meaty little morsels, with a deep, rich, dark-meat chicken flavor.
