Italian Chicken Gizzards - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb. chicken gizzards
water as needed
olive oil as needed
4 to 6 cloves garlic, sliced
1/2 large onion, sliced
1 can mushrooms, drained
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
parsley (to taste)
garlic powder (to taste)
gravy mix (I use Kitchen Bouquet for meat and gravy)

Preparation

Slice up the gizzard into a skillet.
Add water to cover the gizzards.
Cover and let the water come to a boil.
Remove from the heat and drain in a colander.
Add enough olive oil to the skillet so that the gizzards do not stick to the bottom.
Heat the oil; add the gizzards, garlic and onion.
When the gizzards start to fry, add more olive oil.
Season to taste with salt, pepper, parsley and garlic powder.
Add the mushrooms and gravy mix.
Cook until the gizzards are chewable, approximately 30 minutes.
Serves five.
