Low Carb Chicken Hearts

Low Carb Chicken HeartsLow Carb Chicken HeartsLow Carb Chicken Hearts. Don’t ask why but I have always loved chicken hearts. They are super easy to fix and because of the their high fat content, they are naturally very high in the satiety category. I happen to pretty much like most (but not all) organ meats and low carb chicken hearts is one of them. As a kid my mom always fried the WHOLE chicken which meant the heart, gizzard, and liver and I guess that is probably the reason I have always loved them. I don’t eat gizzards but my Chicken Liver Paté is utterly to die for.
