Gizzards are inexpensive and very flavorful but can be tough. By cooking them low and slow they become really tender and the Southwestern spices are always a hit in my house. We eat these over rice or in a tortilla like a burrito. If my picky 12-year-old likes them and actually requests them on a regular basis, then I know it's a winner.

Ingredients

2 pounds chicken gizzards
1 tablespoon chili powder, or more to taste
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
2 dashes hot sauce
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 small onion, diced
1 small bell pepper, diced
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL®)
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream

Directions

Trim and discard as much connective tissue from gizzards as possible. Place gizzards in a slow cooker and season with chili powder, cumin, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Add onion and bell pepper.
Mix condensed soup and diced tomatoes with chile peppers together in a bowl. Pour over the gizzards.
Cook on High until fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours. Stir in sour cream and cook for 15 to 20 more minutes.

Cook's Note:

You can use cream of chicken soup instead of cream of mushroom soup. Hot sauce is optional.
