Prepare and marinate chicken gizzards
After cleaning, cut the chicken gizzards into bite-sized pieces.
Add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, mix well, and marinate for 30 minutes.
Note: Do not cut too small, as the chicken gizzards will shrink when fried; it’s best to cut them into 3 pieces.
-
Fry chicken gizzards
Put the chicken gizzards into a pot of hot oil, fry on low heat. Fry until the surface of the chicken gizzards is evenly firm, then they can be removed.
Tip for you:
- You should wait for the oil to really boil before adding the chicken gizzards, which helps the gizzards to be crispy on the outside while being softer inside when eaten.
- You can use chopsticks to touch the bottom of the oil pot, and when you see small bubbles rising, you can add the chicken gizzards to fry.

Make fish sauce fried chicken gizzards
Put a tablespoon of cooking oil into the pan, add minced garlic, chili, and shallots to sauté until fragrant. Add the previously fried chicken gizzards and stir well.
Add 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and a little pepper, stir well for the dish to absorb the flavor. Add chopped green onions, stir for another moment, and then you can turn off the heat.

Final Product
Chicken gizzards are chewy and crispy, seasoned just right with a savory flavor. Blended with the fragrant aroma of fried onions and garlic. Perfect to eat with hot rice or to sip with a few glasses of beer!

Prepare and marinate chicken gizzards
After cleaning, cut the chicken gizzards into bite-sized pieces. Marinate with 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning, 1/3 tablespoon of monosodium glutamate, 1/3 tablespoon of pepper, 1 tablespoon of chili powder, and 1/3 tablespoon of ginger powder.
Add 1 tablespoon of chili sauce and separate the shell of 1 chicken egg, using chopsticks to mix thoroughly. Let it marinate for 1 hour.
Note: Depending on your taste, you can adjust the amount of seasoning accordingly.
-
Fry the chicken gizzards
Add 150g of crispy frying flour to the marinated chicken gizzards, mixing well so that the flour coats the gizzards evenly.
Gently drop each coated piece of chicken gizzard into hot oil, frying until the gizzards turn light golden. Add minced garlic to fry, and when the garlic turns golden, remove both the gizzards and garlic.
Tips for even coating:
- You can dip the chicken gizzards in a beaten egg mixture and coat with an extra layer of breadcrumbs if desired.
- The egg helps the flour stick easily, but avoid dipping too thick a layer as it will not taste good.
Tips for frying gizzards to be golden and crispy:
- It is best to fry over medium-low heat; avoid high heat as it will burn the outer layer of flour while the gizzards are still undercooked.
- When the garlic turns slightly golden, quickly remove it. Minced garlic browns very quickly, and if left too long, it will burn, creating a bitter taste when eaten.

Final Product
The chicken gizzards are chewy and delicious, coated with a crispy fried batter on the outside. This dish can be enjoyed with chili sauce, perfect for snacking while watching movies on rainy afternoons.
How to clean chicken gizzards effectively, without any odor
- First, you need to remove all the waste inside the chicken gizzards, then scrape off the yellow outer layer attached to the gizzards.
- When scraping, you should not add water, as it will be much harder to scrape compared to scraping it dry.
- Use a mixture of salt and vinegar or lemon juice to thoroughly eliminate the odor. Massage evenly and rinse with clean water several times.
Tips for successfully making the dish:
- If the chicken gizzards are deep-fried, they will be much crispier. For chicken gizzards fried with fish sauce, it’s not necessary to deep-fry; a light fry is sufficient.
- You should spread the chicken gizzards evenly in the pan and fry them thoroughly at once. Remove them all and start frying the remaining ones.
- Avoid putting them in the oil multiple times, as it will continuously lower the oil temperature, making the chicken gizzards not crispy and delicious.
- You can enjoy them with fresh vegetables, cucumbers along with chili sauce or sweet and sour dipping sauce!
