Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 1 lb Chicken gizzards
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Coarse sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons Sake
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges
  • 1 teaspoon Shichimi Togarashi (Japanese seven-spice)(optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Garlic powder(optional)
  • 8 sticks Bamboo skewers

Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

  2. 2

    Clean the chicken gizzards by trimming off any excess silver skin or tough white connective tissue with a sharp knife.

  3. 3

    Cut each gizzard in half or into bite-sized pieces of uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.

  4. 4

    Place the gizzard pieces in a bowl and toss with sake, letting them marinate for 10 minutes to remove any gamey scent.

  5. 5

    Pat the gizzards dry with paper towels and thread 4 to 5 pieces onto each bamboo skewer tightly.

  6. 6

    Season both sides of the skewers generously with coarse sea salt and a light dusting of garlic powder if desired.

  7. 7

    Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly brush with vegetable oil.

  8. 8

    Grill the skewers for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is crispy and the gizzards are cooked through but still crunchy.
