Chicken gizzards in sour cream with potatoes in a slow cooker

Chicken giblets - and it doesn’t matter whether they are hearts or ventricles (the so-called navels), are distinguished by their high nutritional value, and also contain a storehouse of micro- and macroelements beneficial to humans, necessary for the normal functioning of the body.

And if you prepare dishes with them correctly, as we did today - we’ll make chicken gizzards in a slow cooker, stewed with aromatic potatoes and sour cream sauce, then we assure you that this recipe will become one of your favorites!

Financial costs are minimal, especially since you can use duck gizzards instead of chicken gizzards, or take hearts altogether (and it doesn’t matter whether they’re duck or chicken gizzards, the taste will be approximately the same).

As you can see, the recipe leaves room for imagination. Therefore, we choose which giblets we will cook from - and go ahead, read the photo recipe of the delicious dish.

The specified amount of ingredients will yield 5-6 servings. The energy value of one serving of the dish will be 340 calories.

Step 1

Before you start cooking, you need to clean the chicken navels. As a rule, stores sell offal already cleaned and prepared, but if you are lucky enough to purchase farm products (duck or chicken), you will have to try.

We thoroughly wash the ventricles, cut them in half, and remove the inner film - we don’t need it in the dish.

Peel the onions and cut them in half – today’s recipe does not require thin slicing.
Set aside one half of the onion (it will be needed for further preparation of the dish), cut the second half into two more parts.

Now lay out the ventricles, add chopped onion, spices to taste (our recipe advises adding seasonings for meat - a mixture of peppers, bay leaf and paprika). There is no need to add salt at this stage.

Pour water into the multi-bowl (by the way, if it is hot from the kettle, the cooking process will speed up), approximately 600 milliliters.

Close the bowl of the multi-cooker and cook the stomachs in the multi-cooker on the “Stew” mode for 1 hour.

On a note: if you want to use hearts to create a dish, then in this case it is enough to fry them in the “Baking” mode along with onions.

Step 2

While the chicken or duck gizzards are simmering in the miracle saucepan, let’s proceed with the further preparation of the products. Finely chop the remaining half of the onion, as shown in the photo.

Wash the carrots thoroughly and clean them from dirt, remove the peel, and grate them on a coarse grater.

Let's prepare the sauce in advance: in a deep bowl, mix flour (to avoid lumps, we recommend diluting it with a small amount of warm water), sour cream or cream, as you wish.

Let's add spices, you can add a little dry or freshly chopped herbs - the recipe does not set firm limits at this stage.

On a note: chicken gizzards in a slow cooker, when cooked with sour cream, may become slightly bitter due to the specific taste of sour cream. But don’t rush to throw the recipe aside - half a teaspoon of sugar will save the taste of the dish.

Step 3

An hour has passed? Amazing. Chicken gizzards in a slow cooker are ready for the next step.Carefully remove the navels using a colander and pour the broth into a separate bowl.

The resulting liquid must be filtered. The result will be approximately 250 grams of broth.
Place a vegetable mixture of carrots, peeled and chopped garlic and onions into a multicooker, lightly fry in vegetable oil in the “Baking” or “Frying” mode for 10 minutes.

Now we send the duck navels to them, fill them with strained broth, and again start the “Stewing” program for 1 hour.

Step 4

20 minutes after the multicooker starts cooking, pour in the prepared sauce with sour cream, mix everything carefully using a special spatula.

Now the cooking process can go in two ways, depending on what you want to get - something like a thick stew with potatoes, or steamed potatoes with chicken stomachs. Let's cook together.

If you want a more dietary recipe, then in this case, cut the washed and peeled potatoes into large pieces, put them in a special container for steaming, and place them on top of the giblets. In this case, the multicooker will cook two dishes at once.

If you want a stew, then cut the potatoes a little smaller - as shown in the photo, and put them directly into the bowl of the multi-cooker, mixing with meat and vegetables.

On a note: chicken gizzards with rice in a slow cooker with sour cream also turn out quite tasty. In this case, add 1.5 multi-cups of washed long-grain rice to a miracle saucepan and add salt to taste. If necessary, add hot water so that it barely covers the rice, and cook at the same level.


When serving a finished dish, it is allowed to decorate it with fresh herbs and offer white bread to go with it.

By-products have a relatively low cost, good taste and do not require special culinary skills. Chicken gizzards are healthy, and a slow cooker makes cooking easier.

Cooking in a slow cooker is extremely easy. It is enough to prepare the products, place them in the bowl that comes with the multicooker, and press the button to select the program. In recipes with offal, the most popular programs will be “Stewing” and “Baking”, the latter replacing classic frying in a pan.

The multicooker is functional. Dishes are cooked in it for a relatively long time and “languish” at low temperatures. But it is precisely because of this that the equipment is safe - the body does not heat up, and you can open the lid at any time. Cooking dishes in the device requires a minimal amount of oil, so the food turns out to be dietary.

Chicken offal is easy to cook in this device. This product is low in calories and is quickly absorbed. Contains fiber and keeps the body in good shape all day long. There is ash in the stomachs and it removes toxins from the body.

These by-products give energy, improve appetite, improve the functioning of internal organs, and increase life expectancy, thanks to selenium. The product contains a lot of vitamins, iron, zinc.

However, stomachs contain a lot of cholesterol and excessive consumption of them can lead to the development of heart and vascular diseases. There must be balance in food.

Typically, a multicooker is equipped with the utensils necessary for cooking. When preparing the following dishes, use the factory multicooker bowl, a plastic spatula for mixing, and measure all the liquid using glasses, which should also be included in the kit - the so-called multi-glasses.

A simple recipe for cooking chicken gizzards in a Redmond slow cooker

Chicken gizzard is an amazing offal that can be used to prepare many different dishes. It is worth noting that the taste of this product can be compared with beef, only its cost is much lower. The cooking process will be greatly simplified if you stew chicken gizzards in a Redmond multicooker and choose a proven recipe.

  • You will be able to create a complete second course if you use chicken gizzards with vegetables or wheat, buckwheat or rice. Thanks to this, you will get your “signature” recipe.
  • In Redmond multicookers, you can cook a dish in several modes, depending on the model of kitchen appliance; the following programs are often used: “Stewing,” “Rice/Grains,” or “Multicook.”
  • It is necessary to cut the offal before stewing, because this is the only way they will reach full readiness within the time programmed by the multicooker.
  • It is recommended to cook chicken gizzards for at least 1 hour; it is best when the dish is stewed for 1.5 hours.
  • The second dish will turn out tastier if you cook all its ingredients in butter or ghee, although these components may not be taken into account by the recipe you choose. A creamy vegetable mixture (spread) is also suitable for this purpose.

Now the offal must be soaked for approximately 1.5 hours. After the specified time has passed, drain the water from the ventricles and cut them into oblong pieces.

In 15 min. Before the end of the program, add finely chopped garlic cloves to the contents of the multicooker bowl.

Chicken is a fairly frequent guest on our tables, in fact, as are chicken by-products.

Chicken giblets, whether chicken liver, heart or gizzards, are a fairly satisfying protein product. They can be cooked separately as an independent dish, added to salads, prepared into pates, or cooked into delicious first courses. And what tender kebabs can be made from offal. This is a glutton!

So today I decided to bring to your attention a very simple recipe for simultaneously cooking chicken gizzards with a side dish of potatoes in a slow cooker.

potato stew recipe

Dishes in a slow cooker come out like they came out of a Russian oven, rich and simmered. Moreover, the products can be loaded without interfering with the cooking process at all.


For this dish I needed the following ingredients

Ingredients:

  • Chicken gizzards – 1 kg. 200 gr.,
  • Onions – 3 pcs.,
  • Carrots – 2 pcs.,
  • Garlic – 2 cloves,
  • Potatoes 1 – 1.5 kg,
  • Seasoning – 1 tsp. (I used curry powder)
  • Salt and pepper - to taste,
  • Greens (parsley) – 1 bunch,
  • Vegetable oil – 50 ml,
  • Water (or any broth) – 300-500 ml.
  • Fresh herbs - to decorate the finished dish (optional).

Cooking process:

Wash the cut chicken stomachs (navels) thoroughly, removing the rough skin, if any.

Then cut into pieces or, if desired, place whole in the bowl. Turn on the multicooker, select the “Baking” mode, pour vegetable (or olive) oil into the bowl, and heat it up.

By default, the Panasonic multicooker screen displays a cooking duration of 40 minutes; this will be enough for us to fry offal, since the temperature in this mode is about 160-180 degrees. In other models of multicookers, you can use the “Frying” mode for quick frying.

Place the prepared ones in a bowl and fry with the lid open, stirring occasionally so that they are cooked on all sides.

After 5-7 minutes, put chopped onions and carrots into the bowl.

Sprinkle the stomachs with seasoning of your choice. I used curry, it’s great for cooking poultry, which means it’s also good for chicken giblets. You can use any all-purpose seasoning if you wish.

Let the stomachs and vegetables cook together a little so that they exchange flavors and juices.

Meanwhile, chop the peeled potatoes. I like to cut the potato tubers into cubes.

When the time for frying the ventricles has come to an end (5 minutes are displayed on the multicooker screen), place the prepared potatoes in the multicooker bowl. Place chopped garlic on top of the potatoes. Salt and pepper the potatoes and gizzards to taste, add water (or any broth).

Chop fresh herbs, add to potatoes and mix thoroughly.

My family likes the potatoes to have broth and not dry, so I pour water on top of the potatoes 2 fingers higher.

At this moment the “Baking” mode has come to an end, we switch the multicooker to the “Pilaf” mode (this program is automatic, it will turn off when most of the liquid has evaporated) or to the “Stewing” mode for 1 hour 30 minutes. This will be quite enough. What I like about the “Pilaf” program is that the bottom of the potatoes turns out slightly fried.

We close the lid of the multicooker and go about our business.

When the stomachs in the multicooker are ready, it will notify us of readiness with a signal and switch to the mode of keeping the finished dish warm.

It turns out to be a very tasty homemade dish of chicken giblets; curry seasoning gives it a subtle oriental aroma.

Bon appetit and good recipes!

Many housewives do not like chicken by-products because of their unaesthetic appearance and the complexity of the cooking process. I would like to immediately note that chicken giblets are very healthy and low-calorie, and this allows you to include them in the diet. In fact, from ordinary chicken stomachs you can make a very tasty and tender dish with creamy or sour cream sauce. Would you like to try it?

We will help you cook chicken gizzards in a slow cooker very quickly and without any hassle.
