Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken gizzards
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the 1 lb chicken gizzards and pat dry. Trim any excess fat or sinew, then cut each gizzard into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp vegetable oil, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Add the gizzards and toss to coat evenly.

  3. 3

    Thread the gizzards onto skewers, dividing them equally. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes first to prevent burning.

  4. 4

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the gizzards are browned and charred at the edges and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Brush with any remaining marinade during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Serve hot, sprinkled with optional sesame seeds or chopped scallions if you like.
