Steps:
- 1. In a heavy mortar, grind up the chilies and garlic.
- 2. Clean the chicken giblets, or parts you want, by removing the fat from the hearts and livers, cut the livers crosswise into 2-3 pieces., Cut the hearts in half (top to bottom), and chop the gizzards if using, into just smaller than bite size pieces.
- 3. In a large non-stick pan, heat a splash of olive oil or cooking oil of your choice, and add the livers, hearts, and gizzards, and the chili and garlic paste from the mortar, and just a small amount of water, cook until the liver is no longer pink inside. While cooking, sprinkle in the chicken stock powder and stir that in. Stir the giblets occasionally. When the liver is cooked through, add the basil and stir that in until it wilts. Serve with rice.
CHICKEN GIBLETS OR LIVERS
Giblets : The edible inner parts of poultry, including the gizzard, heart, liver and kidneys ....... This recipes was devised to use up all the giblets left over from home slaughtered chickens! You can use either giblets or just livers in this recipe. However, the cooking time for giblets is longer than that for livers. Giblets need 15 - 20 minutes, but the livers should be added only 5 - 8 minutes before serving. Have lots of fresh bread and rolls on hand to dip into the sauce!
