Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken gizzards
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the chicken gizzards under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, ground black pepper, sea salt, and coconut aminos. Mix well to create a marinade.
Add the gizzards to the marinade and toss to ensure they are fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the marinated gizzards evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, turning the gizzards halfway through cooking to ensure even baking.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
