About Baked gizzards
Baked gizzards are a flavorful and protein-packed dish, commonly found in Southern U.S. cuisine and various global traditions, including African and Asian cooking. Gizzards are a specific part of a bird's digestive system, typically harvested from chickens, known for their distinct texture and rich taste. This dish involves seasoning the gizzards with spices and baking them until tender, providing a healthier alternative to fried variations. Nutritionally, gizzards are low in fat but high in protein, vitamins, and essential minerals like iron and zinc, making them an excellent choice for muscle-building and energy support. However, they are also high in cholesterol, so moderation is recommended for individuals managing heart health. Baked gizzards can be paired with vegetables or whole grains for a balanced meal that highlights their savory appeal while adding nutritional variety.
