chicken hearts

Small edible giblets

Chicken hearts are the hearts of chickens prepared as food—small, dense organs with a rich, slightly gamey flavor.

They're eaten worldwide, often grilled on skewers, sautéed, or added to soups and stews.

In Japanese cuisine they appear as yakitori; in Brazilian churrasco they're a staple.

The chicken hearts were seasoned with garlic and herbs.
