Ingredients

• 1 pound chicken gizzards
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Start by rinsing the chicken gizzards thoroughly under cold water. Trim any excess fat or tough membranes using a sharp knife.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine olive oil, gluten-free soy sauce, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, and sage. Add salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to the mixture.

Step 3

Add the cleaned chicken gizzards to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate. Allow the gizzards to marinate for at least 30 minutes (for best results, marinate for 2 hours or overnight if time permits).

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

Once marinated, remove the gizzards from the refrigerator. Transfer them to a baking dish, spreading them evenly so they cook uniformly.

Step 6

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the gizzards are tender and cooked through. Turn the gizzards halfway through baking for even cooking.

Step 7

Remove from oven and let cool slightly for a few minutes before serving. The gizzards can be served warm as a main course with your favorite sides, or as a delightful appetizer.
