Sport Chicken gizzards?

Sport Fitness
I want to cook some chicken gizzards to eat for like 2 days.

I always eat chicken breast, but wanted to try something different.

I won't cook the gizzards if it is too unhealthy though, which is why I am asking you all advice on gizzards.

Should I avoid it entirely, or could I get away with eating it for 2 days.
 
Dip in milk, then in flour, then in egg, then back in flour one more time. Throw them in a fryer at 360 degrees for a feew minutes...yum!!!
 
yeah, rubbery chicken.

the ONLY way i can eat gizzards is deep fat fried, which completely defeats the purpose of eating them as a healthy food.

watch out for sand left inside, or skin (the skin is yellow/green)
 
Wait, it is ok to eat this?

I am not going to eat it regularly, I would like to cook it tomorrow with some chicken breast and whole wheat pasta.

I used to eat alot of gizzard and liver in a special fried dish I made with hardened black sauce, but I don't fry or eat fried food anymore.

I never found sand in gizzards that I cooked in the past...never heard of that really....is it sand from the chicken when it was alive or something?

P.S - Gizzard is a chewy piece of meat. The outside casing is rubbery and when you bite into it it feels likes a firmer version of an egg white, but not as soft....it doesn't taste like egg white though, tastes like chicken. =)

the gizzard is before a chickens stomach. its a thick muscle that grinds up the food a chicken eats. since chickens peck food off the ground, there's usually a bit of dirt/sand in the gizzard, and sometimes it doesn't get cleaned out properly.

(used to work at KFC in high school....know more about cooking fried chicken than I'd like)
