Chicken Gizzard, Raw
Chicken gizzard is a muscular organ from the digestive tract of poultry that naturally grinds food for the bird. This lean organ meat is particularly dense in nutrients, offering an excellent source of protein, iron, and zinc while remaining low in fat. Raw gizzards have a firm, dense texture with a distinctive purple-gray color, and typically require extended cooking to become tender due to their high concentration of connective tissue.
