Ingredients for Chicken Gizzard Stewed with Pineapple Serves 4

How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Pineapple
- You should choose pineapples with an attractive yellow color, sometimes mixed with green spots, as these are ripe and have reached a certain sweetness.
- A perfectly ripe pineapple will have a sweet fragrance, not too strong. When you touch it, you will feel a moderate softness, and the skin will be slightly wrinkled.
- Avoid buying pineapples that are uneven in color. If the fruit has a lot of green, it means they are not fully ripe, while those that are yellow but mixed with dark brown have overripe and are about to spoil.

Prepare the chicken gizzards
To eliminate the unpleasant smell from the chicken gizzards you bought, use 3 tablespoons of salt to rub and massage the gizzards for about 3 minutes until the salt completely dissolves, then rinse 2 – 3 times with clean water.
Cut the chicken gizzards into bite-sized pieces and make small incisions on the cut pieces so that the chicken can absorb the seasoning better during marination.

Prepare other ingredients
Peel the pineapple, use a knife to remove the eyes of the pineapple diagonally, cut into small triangular pieces and marinate with 1 teaspoon of sugar, mix well and marinate for about 3 minutes.

How to choose fresh chicken gizzards
- Good chicken gizzards will have a bright color, no unusual odor, and when touched, they should have good elasticity and not be mushy.
- If buying pre-prepared chicken gizzards, you should choose those with full and clear packaging and information from reputable supermarkets or food stores to ensure safety and quality when using.
- When purchasing, you should choose chicken gizzards with a production date as close to the purchase date as possible to ensure you get the freshest gizzards.
- Avoid buying chicken gizzards that are past their expiration date, have a purplish color, are not firm, and have an unusual smell. These are spoiled gizzards, which will not taste good and are very harmful to health.
How to clean and deodorize chicken gizzards
- Step 1: Use a knife to split the chicken gizzards open, remove all the contents and scrape off the yellow layer stuck on the gizzards under running water.
- Step 2: Add a little vinegar and rub the gizzards thoroughly for 2 minutes to clean them and remove the odor.
- Step 3: Scrape the gizzards again in diluted saltwater to ensure all the slime stuck on them is removed, then rinse with clean water.
