CHICKEN HEARTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the chicken hearts, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika and cumin in a large bowl.
• Use a large spoon, or your hands, to mix everything together, coating the hearts with the oil and seasonings.
• Heat a large, heavy frypan over medium-high heat, for about 3 minutes.
• Add the seasoned chicken hearts. Cook, stirring often, until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes. If the pan becomes too hot, lower the heat to medium.
• Divide the hearts between four plates. Drizzle them with the pan juices, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve.

CHICKEN HEARTS WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook and stir onion until soft and translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add chicken hearts and brown, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Cover skillet, reduce heat, and cook until hearts are no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and mix well. Cook, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

CHICKEN HEART PâTé

Steps:

• Throw the hearts, diced chicken breast, chopped tomatoes, onion, carrots and parsnip into boiling water and let it all simmer for at least 30 minutes.
• Take the lid off the pan and let the liquid reduce itself for about fiftenn minutes.
• Sieve the mixture, trying not to loose the liquid - it makes great soup.
• Put all the boiled ingredients into a large bowl (or back into the pan) and add lard, tomato concentrate and chickpea. Mix thoroughy with a spoon.
• Set up the food processor and blend everything together until a fine paste is made. It should have the consistency of dumpling dough, if it's toothick add some broth or brine.
• Put the paste into a cake tin and bake for about 1.5 hour in 250 degrees centigrade. Poke the pâté once in a while to check if it's ready.
• When properly baked, take the pâté out of the tin and let it cool down. Serve in slices on a buttered toast.

CHICKEN HEARTS

Steps:

• Marinate (optional): combine the garlic, olive oil, and salt/pepper in a bag and add the chicken hearts; marinate for 2-3 hours.
• Saute the leek or onion and additional garlic and ginger (if using) in olive oil until soft.
• Add the chicken hearts and saute over medium heat until done, stirring occasionally.
• Alternatively, saute chicken hearts halfway and finish in the broiler.
• Can also be cooked on skewers on the grill. Be sure to soak the skewers in water first.
• Time does not include optional marination time.

SPICY CUMIN CHICKEN HEART SKEWERS

Steps:

• To make the chicken hearts: Butterfly the chicken hearts by slicing them lengthwise, cutting deeply without cutting them entirely in half.
• Smash the green onions and ginger with clean hands to release their flavors.
• Add the smashed green onions and ginger, along with the Sichuan peppercorns, five-spice powder, cooking wine, and salt to a container along with 1 cup (240 ml) water to make a marinade.
• Add the chicken hearts to the marinade and stir well to combine. Cover the container with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Any longer and you risk over-marinating.
• To grill and serve: Thread 5 chicken hearts onto each skewer. The skewers may be kept refrigerated, covered, before cooking for no longer than 2 hours.
• Prepare a robata or other grill with charcoal that has turned ashy gray and is smoldering hot but not actively emitting flames. Set the skewers down on the grill surface and cook for 2 minutes, then flip over and cook for an additional 2 minutes. When the meat tightens up and oil begins to seep out, it is almost done. At this point, brush the oil on one side of the meat, then sprinkle half of the cumin, red chili powder, and salt, to taste, on top.
• Flip the skewers over and season the other side in the same way. Flip the skewers once more and toast the newly seasoned side for about 30 seconds. Cook for about a minute or so more on each side.
• Remove the cooked skewers to a plate, sprinkle with the sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
• Note: When brushing oil and sauce on the meat while over the fire, do so sparingly, dabbing off any excess, so it doesn't drip onto the flames. If at any point the flames flare up, remove the skewers from the grill until the flames die down.
