Spicy Chicken Gizzards

This spicy and savory stir-fried chicken offal dish is a bold Sichuan-inspired delight that packs a punch of flavor. Featuring a mix of chicken heart, liver, gizzard, and intestines, this recipe is elevated by the tangy heat of pickled peppers and ginger, balanced with aromatic garlic and fresh vegetables. The key to its rich taste lies in the quick blanching of chicken intestines for perfect texture and the umami-packed sauce made with pickled vegetable water, soy sauce, and sesame oil. High-heat stir-frying locks in tenderness while infusing every bite with spicy, sour, and savory notes. Crisp green peppers and celery add freshness, making this dish a satisfying balance of textures and bold flavors—perfect for adventurous eaters who love authentic, fiery Chinese cuisine.
