Chicken gizzards consist of muscle tissue covered with a fatty layer on top, as well as an elastic membrane that serves to protect the internal cavity from damage. Gizzards go to stores mostly in a cleaned form, but if you are “lucky” to buy an uncleaned product, get ready for a rather complicated and meticulous work.
