Steps:
- Clean the chicken gizzards as needed.
- Heat a large pot of water on the stovetop to a simmer and add the gizzards. Simmer for one hour to tenderize them, using enough water to cover the chicken.
- Remove chicken from the water and cool in the refrigerator while soaking in one cup of milk.*
- Once cooled, set up your dredging station by mixing the flour and seasonings in a large dish, and beat one egg with two tablespoons of milk in a separate dish.
- Drain the gizzards from the milk and lightly dredge in the flour mixture. Work in batches until all of the gizzards have been coated.
- Place each of the floured gizzards in the beaten eggs and let any excess egg drain off prior to placing directly into the flour mixture for one more coating.
- Fry chicken gizzards in batches in 350 degree oil until golden brown. This will take approximately 5 minutes.
- Remove from oil and drain on a wire rack or paper towels, then serve with your favorite hot sauce or preferred dipping sauce.

SOUTHERN FRIED GIZZARDS RECIPE
"You can never be surrounded by too many gizzards." More commonly sold than duck gizzards, chicken gizzards are dirt-cheap and wholly delicious. I was first introduced to the glory of Southern fried chicken gizzards at Roscoe's, a chain of chicken-and-waffle...

Steps:
- Place the gizzards in a bowl with the onions and pour enough buttermilk into the bowl to cover the contents entirely. Refrigerate the gizzards for 8 hours, or preferably for 24 hours. The gizzards will hold in the buttermilk for up to 2 days.
- When you are ready to fry, remove the gizzards from the buttermilk and drain them in a colander. They do not have to be impeccably dry, just drained of the excess buttermilk. Cut the gizzards into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch chunks, working around and discarding any excess sinew or tendon.
- Mix the flour with the salt, cayenne pepper, and seasonings. Have the beaten egg ready.
- To fry: Heat the oil to 350°F. When ready to fry, dip each piece of gizzard in the egg, and then dredge well in the flour. The gizzards must be coated very well or else the batter will not be crisp.
- Slip the gizzards into the hot oil and fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown and crisp. Drain over a rack to get rid of the excess oil. Serve immediately, accompanied by grits and collards for the full Southern experience.
