Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the gizzards

    Rinse the chicken gizzards under cold water and trim any excess fat. Cut them into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Sauté the aromatics

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. 3

    Cook the gizzards

    Add the gizzards to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned.

  4. 4

    Season the mixture

    Sprinkle in the cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the gizzards are tender.

  5. 5

    Finish and serve

    Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Serve hot with lime wedges on the side.
