Chicken hearts are small, nutrient-dense organs that are valued for their rich flavor and versatility in global cuisines. Commonly found in Brazilian churrasco, Japanese yakitori, or Eastern European dishes, they bring high protein content to meals while being relatively low in fat. Packed with essential vitamins and minerals, chicken hearts are especially rich in iron, zinc, and B vitamins like B12, which support energy production and red blood cell formation. They also provide CoQ10, an antioxidant linked to heart health. While their cholesterol content may be a concern for some individuals, moderate consumption can be part of a balanced diet. Often grilled, sautéed, or stewed, chicken hearts offer a lean and affordable source of protein with a robust, slightly gamey flavor that appeals to diverse palates.
