Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gizzards

    Clean the chicken gizzards under cold water, removing any fat or membranes. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Egg Wash

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.

  4. 4

    Bread the Gizzards

    Dip each gizzard first into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then coat it in the flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  6. 6

    Fry the Gizzards

    Carefully add the breaded gizzards to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the fried chicken gizzards hot with a side of pickles.
