Ingredients

  • 500 grams Chicken gizzards
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
  • 3 cloves Garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Rinse the chicken gizzards under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, minced garlic cloves, and lemon juice.

Step 4

Add the chicken gizzards to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the herb mixture.

Step 5

Season the gizzards with sea salt, black pepper, paprika, and onion powder. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes to enhance the flavor.

Step 7

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 8

Spread the marinated gizzards out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Bake the gizzards in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, turning them halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 10

Check for doneness by piercing a gizzard with a fork; it should be tender and no longer pink inside.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the gizzards rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm as an appetizer or a main dish, garnished with extra fresh herbs if desired.
