Q: Can I air fry them?
A: Yes! Spray with oil and air fry at 400°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway—but frying gives the best crunch.
Q: Where do I buy gizzards?
A: Most grocery stores carry them near chicken livers or in the frozen meat section. Ask your butcher!
Q: What do they taste like?
A: Richer and more savory than chicken breast—similar to dark meat, with a satisfying chew (when cooked right!).
