Bought chicken hearts and not sure how to prepare them? My fried chicken hearts with onions and simple seasonings—it's the easiest and most delicious way to enjoy them!
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add ½ medium yellow onion, diced. Cook the onions over medium heat, stirring often until golden brown.
Add 1.5 pounds chicken hearts, halved lengthwise , along with ½ teaspoons salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder. Cook the chicken hearts and onions over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 7-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the hearts are no longer pink inside.
Garnish with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
You do not need to wash chicken hearts if they appear to be clean from blood or residues. If you need, you can rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels before cooking.If you do not cut chicken hearts lengthwise, they will take longer to cook. Serve them with mashed potatoes, pasta, rice or vegetables.Thawed chicken hearts should be cooked within 1-2 days.
