Spicy Chicken Gizzard and Heart Adobo


The spicy chicken gizzard is a variation of cooking adobo. It is sounding a national dish in the Philippines is adobo. In most countries I've been and someone asks me where I come from and tells from the Philippines, they replied back and asked if I eat adobo. Of course I'm proud to say I do, only a feeling that adobo is a Filipino signature.

Diverse culture, others is hesitating to cook the innards of chicken. Most countries in Asia, seeing innards dish have been just a common. It is literally a joke "Asian eats everything". It's funny, but I guess yes, we eat everything! Asides the joke,  Asians cuisines are just passionate and resourceful in creating delicious dishes.
