Chicken gizzards with sour cream – easy & delicious recipe

Chicken gizzards are an affordable, nutritious, and surprisingly delicious organ meat. When cooked properly, they are very filling and provide the body with essential vitamins and minerals.

If you stew them in sour cream, the result is a tender, aromatic delicacy that even those who don’t usually enjoy poultry will love.

For frying, we recommend using corn oil. It has a neutral taste and a high smoke point, meaning it doesn’t break down under heat or alter the flavor of the dish.

CraftOil™ (manufacturer of premium cold-pressed raw vegetable oils) offers a wide variety of organic, natural products. On the website, you can order fresh, aromatic corn oil, pressed from certified raw materials. The oil is made only after the order is placed, bottled immediately into dark glass bottles, and shipped throughout Ukraine and Europe.
