gizzards and rice
This is a favorite of my family except for my husband! We have it when he is gone mostly, but he is a good sport when I do make it and he is home for dinner! Edit: 25 years later he comes into the house and says, "Gizzards and Rice? YUM!" LOL.

How To Make gizzards and rice
-
Step 1Place gizzards and hearts in slow cooker.
-
Step 2Add broth, stock or water to cover. Here I had some stock left over so I used that in place of the bullion. I cooked this 8 hours on low.
-
Step 3Drain and reserve cooking water. Set gizzards aside to cool.
-
Step 4Heat butter in a 12' frying pan until bubbly. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is soft..
-
Step 5Add rice after onions are beginning to soften.
-
Step 6Here I added some sweet red pepper for a little color.
-
Step 7Add mushrooms and cook until they are getting soft.
-
Step 8Mix Sherry, soy, cumin, ginger and water from gizzards to make 4 cups.
-
Step 9Add to rice mixture, bring to a boil, cover and simmer.
-
Step 10Chop gizzards with a knife or food processor.
-
Step 11Add chopped meat to rice when rice is nearly done. Stir all together to warm up the gizzards.
-
Step 12You may have to add more gizzard water or butter if the pan seems too dry. It's better if there is extra moisture.
-
Step 13When all is tender, stir in chopped parsley and sliced green onion if desired.
