chicken-hearts
Those lacking courage
Chicken-hearts are the hearts of chickens, prepared as food.
They're small, dense organs with a rich, slightly gamey flavor, often grilled, fried, or braised.
Popular in many cuisines—Brazilian churrasco features them on skewers, and they appear in Asian stir-fries and Eastern European dishes.
The yakitori place serves excellent chicken-hearts.
