Everything you Didn't Know you Could do With Chicken Offal
Alright, let's talk about something most people side-eye at the butcher's counter, chicken offal. We're talking liver, hearts, gizzards, and all the bits that don't usually make it to Instagram. They might not look glamorous next to a plump chicken breast, but trust us, these underdogs have a lot going for them. They're packed with flavour, bursting with nutrients, and, when cooked right, are incredibly delicious. Read More
What Even is Offal, Anyway?
Let's clear that up first. Offal simply means the edible organs of the animal. Basically, the liver, heart, and gizzards when what comes to chicken. The thought of them might not make your mouth water, but it's very likely that your grandparents and great-grandparents ate them all the time. They'd whip up a chicken liver pâté or toss some hearts into a stew without a second thought. Now, we've gotten a bit squeamish about it, but really, there's nothing scary here, just good, old-fashioned, flavour-packed food.
Liver: A Powerhouse of Nutrients
Chicken liver is loaded with iron, vitamin A, B12, and protein, basically everything your body craves when you've had one too many late nights or tucked into a few fry-ups. And it tastes amazing when cooked right. Pan-fry it with onions and a splash of balsamic vinegar or blend it into a creamy pâté. Spread it on toast, and you'll feel like you're dining in a fancy French bistro, minus the hefty price tag.
Hearts: Small Yet Full of Flavour
Chicken hearts might sound… unusual, but once you get over the name, they're actually fantastic. They taste like tiny, rich morsels of steak. Skewer them, season with a bit of garlic and fresh herbs, and toss them on the grill. They'll come out juicy, tender, and packed with that deep, meaty flavour you didn't know you were missing out on savouring. You can even stir-fry them with soy sauce and ginger for a quick and adventurous midweek dinner that you will be raving about to your colleagues the next working day.
Gizzards: For When You're Craving Something Chewy and Crunchy
The gizzard is the part of the chicken responsible for their digestion. It's lean, firm, and surprisingly tasty when you follow the cooking guidelines. Boil it until tender, then fry it up for a crispy treat. Or throw it into soups to make it thicker and more flavourful.
Beyond the Plate
Here's the fun part, chicken offal isn't just for fancy dishes or people who are tired of having ordinary chicken breast and rice, pizza and chips, or chilli con carne for dinner. You can make homemade dog treats with them (your pup won't stop wagging their tail), toss them into bone broth for extra nutrition, or use them to create rich gravies to complement a Sunday roast. It's the ultimate way to make the most of the bird, zero waste, all reward.
