Using fish, chicken, or even sliced cooked green bananas, you may prepare these zesty marinated veggies according to an old Spanish tradition. With chicken gizzards, I prefer it the most.

I make this all the time. I buy it at stop n shop and for good size package $3.00 and that’s a good deal. I make it with bananas or without and I do without because my husband can’t have bananas due to CKD and he loves it over rice . They eat 3 dishes per person that’s how much they love it .
Great recipe my husband loves this dish my first time making it. I would just cut the vinegar Dow to just 1 cup! Overall great
Instructions not clear.
Although I do not eat this I have made it twice for the holidays for family and friends, and they all love it! I actually put my own twist to it with the seasoning..so this might make a big difference in the preparation. I wanted to add my own recipe on the app, but I have no clue on how to do it. Good luck!
Did not like this. First time I ever had gizzards and I doubt I’ll ever eat them again.
nice. i try in a party and all my friends like it …….hummmmmmm
