Vietnamese cuisine: chicken gizzard, satay and sweet and sour soup, the recipe.
While shopping at the supermarket, a few days ago, I discovered that they had chicken gizzard and I decided to buy it to make an excellent dish together with a sweet and sour salmon soup with tomatoes.
If you don't know what gizzard is, I invite you to look it up on Wikipedia.

Satay

How to make lemongrass satay with hot chili pepper. I'll put the photo below.
Ingredients:
– fresh chili pepper;
– fresh lemongrass;
– tomatoes;
– garlic cloves;
– red onions;
– spices: olive oil, sugar, salt, fish sauce, annatto seeds, pepper and paprika.
Depending on whether you want to eat more chili pepper or lemongrass, more onion or garlic, you can prepare the ingredients according to your preferences.

Preparation:
Chop the lemongrass into small pieces, then put it in a blender with the olive oil and then put it in a bowl.
Also blend some tomato and chilli together, then put in another bowl.
Now put the red onion and garlic together in a pan, add the olive oil and sauté until the onions and garlic are fragrant and firm; then continue adding the chopped lemongrass first with the tomato and chilli mixture and sauté everything in the same pan. Leave to brown for about 7-10 minutes, then add the spices in turn: sugar, salt, seasoning, paprika.
Taste again and add some fish sauce (to taste).
Then sauté the mixture again in the pan for another 7-10 minutes and turn off the heat, sprinkle with pepper and mix well.
Once cooled you can put it in a container in the refrigerator and use gradually.
Note that to keep the mixture for a long time, you need to add a lot of cooking oil, immerse in the mixture and fry very well. Add plenty of sugar and spices to obtain a delicious sweet-savory mixture.
I use the satay that I prepare to accompany many dishes but also to season some Italian foods such as salami or pasta with ragù to make everything fragrant with lemongrass and spicy with chili pepper. Spicy but not too much because we added tomatoes!

Chicken gizzard

Ingredients:
– 100g chicken gizzards (bought at Coop)
– Spring onion and coriander, thinly sliced
– 2 cloves of garlic and 1 red onion: thinly sliced ​​for frying.
– Seasoning: 1 tablespoon soy sauce; 1/3 teaspoon sugar; 1 teaspoon seasoning; spicy satay with lemongrass and chilli (homemade); paprika; pepper.

Preparation:
After purchasing, the chicken gizzards should be washed with white salt, then sliced ​​as desired and boiled in boiling water and rinsed with cold water so that they are crispy.
Heat oil in a pan, add sliced ​​onion and garlic and fry until fragrant. Pour in the chicken gizzard, stir quickly over high heat until the chicken gizzard is lightly browned.
Then add spices: soy sauce, seasoning, sugar and satay with lemongrass and chili and fry for another 3-5 minutes, then add chopped spring onion and coriander and then turn off the heat.
After turning off the heat, add pepper and chili powder, mix well.
Remove the chicken gizzard on a plate, eat it hot with rice and soup.

Crispy chicken gizzards are paired with the flavor of lemongrass satay chili, shallots and coriander; the spicy taste of chili quickly warms the hearts of friends at the table in these cold days.
When you are tired of eating either meat or fish, you can change the taste of your meal with a dish of chicken gizzards.
The dish is easy to make but brings a new sensation to the family meal tray, want to try it?
