Chicken gizzards are a hidden gem! Mild in flavor and resembling tender dark meat, once you try them, you’ll wonder why you didn’t discover them sooner. In fact, they pack more nutrients than the chicken breast, making them a powerhouse of goodness. The gizzard plays a key role in chicken digestion, working as a very active muscle to break down food. This makes it incredibly collagen-rich, offering even more health benefits for your joints, skin, and gut. To unlock all the collagen and turn it into rich, gooey gelatin, chicken gizzards need to be cooked low and slow. When prepared this way, they’re a delicious and nutrient-dense addition to your meals that will leave you feeling nourished and satisfied.

Unlike conventional chicken, which is raised in factory farms with heavy antibiotic and vaccine use, our chickens are mobile pasture-raised, moved to fresh pasture daily, and never confined in industrial barns. This natural lifestyle allows them to forage for grass, bugs, and other nutrient-dense foods, resulting in superior flavor and nutrition.

Additionally, we feed our birds a one-of-a-kind, low-PUFA, corn- and soy-free diet, grown by our regenerative row crop farmers. Not only is it low in PUFAs, but it is also low in phytoestrogens and pesticides (LowPs™)—ensuring that you get the cleanest, healthiest chicken possible.

Raised in harmony with nature, our chickens are needle-free, meaning no pharmaceutical interventions are used or needed (no vaccines, antibiotics, dewormers, or hormones). The result? A superior-tasting, tender, and clean protein source you can trust.
  • LowPs™ Chicken Gizzards
Chicken gizzards contain a significant amount of connective tissue due to their constant use, so low-and-slow cooking methods help break down their toughness, resulting in a melt-in-your-mouth texture. To braise, add gizzards to a pot or Dutch oven, fully submerge them in water or a flavorful liquid (like broth or wine), bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 1.5–2 hours until tender. If using a slow cooker, braise on low for 4–6 hours or high for 2–3 hours. Once tender, gizzards can be enjoyed in tacos, on top of rice bowls, or mixed into a hearty potato hash.

Traditional Recipes from Cultures Throughout the World:
- Brazilian Moela (Brazil): Gizzards stewed in a rich tomato sauce with onions, garlic, and peppers, typically served over rice.
- Gizzards in Tomato Sauce (Italy): gizzards are often braised in a flavorful tomato sauce with garlic, onions, and herbs like oregano and basil. The gizzards absorb the rich flavors of the sauce, making them tender and aromatic. Serve over pasta, polenta, or with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
- Chicken Gizzard Curry (India): In Indian cuisine, gizzards are often cooked in a rich, aromatic curry made with onions, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, and a variety of spices like turmeric, cumin, and garam masala. The gizzards absorb the curry flavors and become tender as they cook. Serve with rice or flatbread such as naan or roti.
- French Gésiers Salad (France): Confit-style gizzards slow-cooked in duck fat, then tossed in a warm salad with greens, walnuts, and a mustard vinaigrette.

So impressed

My mom is sort of a chef and a meat snob. Especially when it comes to chicken. My randfather used to be in the chicken business which is where she learned about good meat. I was honestly a little nervous to give your chicken to her because I was already in love without even trying it. She had told me multiple times already that Nourish chicken is the best chicken she has ever had and cooked with since she can remember! She can't believe it and even said it's the first time she has seen "normal size" chicken in years! Thank you again for becoming the best farmers on the planet and opening Nourish! 💕

Low in PUFAs, Custom-Feed

Our chicken contains 202% more of the health promoting Stearic Acid, and 54% less of the health-degrading Linoleic Acid (an Omega 6 PUFA).

Modern chickens contain significantly higher levels of PUFAs than they did in the past, with some sources even claiming that chicken is now the highest dietary source of linoleic acid (an omega-6 PUFA found in vegetable oils). This shift is primarily due to changes in the chicken’s diet, driven by the mass production of corn, soy, and other PUFA-rich ingredients used in conventional feed. And while pasture-raised chickens may have access to forage, they still require supplemental feed, which is often rich in PUFAs. Therefore, even pasture-raised chicken can still have high levels of omega-6 fatty acids, because what chickens eat directly impacts the types of fat and quality of meat you consume.

That's why at Nourish we’ve developed a custom-made low-PUFA, nutrient-dense feed for our birds, ensuring their meat contains lower levels of inflammatory PUFAs and higher levels of metabolism-supporting fats. Our commitment to better feed results in better health for both our chickens and our customers—lab-tested for peace of mind. Simply put, better food for our animals means better food for you.

Mobile Pasture-Raised for Optimal Nutrition

Chickens raised on pasture enjoy a diverse, nutrient-rich diet, which includes not only supplemental feed but also fresh grasses, plants, and insects. This variety enhances their nutrient intake, which is then passed on to you through the meat you consume. Pasture-raised animal products are richer in fat-soluble vitamins. For example, Vitamin D levels in animal fat are influenced by sunlight, which enables animals to synthesize vitamin D in their skin and store it in their fat. Additionally, Vitamin K2 levels in animal fat are impacted by their diet, with grass-grazing animals having higher levels of this essential nutrient.

In contrast, animals confined to buildings or cages are limited to their supplemental feed, leading to a less varied nutrient profile and, ultimately, a less nutrient-dense product.

At Nourish, we take it a step further with mobile pasture-raised practices, where our chickens are moved to a fresh patch of grass daily. This ensures they have continuous access to fresh grasses and insects, providing them with a more varied and nutrient-dense diet. Unlike the generic “pasture-raised” label—which often lacks regulation—our mobile system prevents land degradation, preserves vegetation, and avoids the soil issues caused by prolonged animal presence. Regularly rotating the chickens allows the land to recover, supporting chicken health, environmental sustainability, and, ultimately, your health.

Healthier Chickens, Free of Pharmaceuticals

Healthy animals don’t need pharmaceutical crutches. Our chickens are raised in optimal conditions—mobile pasture-raised with daily access to fresh grass, clean air, and space to express their natural instincts. Unlike confined birds that require constant antibiotic interventions due to poor living conditions, our chickens aren’t trapped in their own waste or exposed to airborne toxins. Instead, they breathe fresh air, forage freely, and benefit from nutrient-rich grasses that support their gut and immune health. While chickens can’t survive on grass alone, regular access to fresh pasture provides key nutrients and fiber, promoting overall well-being.

This natural lifestyle eliminates the need for routine antibiotics, vaccines (including mRNA vaccines), hormones, and dewormers. Industrial chickens, crammed into barns or cages, rely on daily antibiotics in their water and an aggressive vaccine schedule just to survive. In contrast, our pasture-raised chickens exercise more, experience less stress, and develop stronger immune systems, resulting in healthier meat with superior nutrient density. By prioritizing regenerative farming, we raise resilient chickens that rarely get sick, avoiding the pharmaceutical dependence of conventional poultry production.
