Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken gizzards/giblets

- Extra virgin olive oil
- Red pepper seeds taste (or one sliced chile)

Trim and rinse chicken gizzards/giblets in cool running water and put in a one quart saucepan. Fill with cold water until about two inches above the gizzards/giblets, bring to a boil, and bring down to a simmer for 30-40 min. Drain, set aside and cool so that you can safely cut them into 1 inch pieces.

Add onion, let onion sauté until translucent and add red bell pepper, sautée until the bell pepper begins to soften (about 3-4 minutes), add gizzards/giblets sauté about 5 minutes, add red pepper seeds, salt and pepper to taste, toss and sauté for a few moments then drizzle with balsamic, cover and let cook another few moments.
