Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gizzards

    Clean the chicken gizzards thoroughly under cold running water. Remove any excess fat and connective tissue. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Gizzards

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sake, mirin, minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the cleaned gizzards to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for better flavor.

  3. 3

    Soak Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

  4. 4

    Skewer the Gizzards

    Thread the marinated chicken gizzards onto the soaked skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.

  5. 5

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the gizzards are cooked through and have a nice char.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve hot with additional soy sauce on the side.
