Helzel
Helzel is a traditional Jewish dish made from chicken necks and gizzards. It’s often cooked with onions, garlic, and various spices to create a flavorful and comforting dish. It’s typically served as a side dish or used as an ingredient in other recipes.
Ingredients
Method
- Rinse the chicken necks and gizzards under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until they turn golden brown and fragrant.
- Add the chicken necks and gizzards to the skillet and cook them for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned.
- Sprinkle the paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper over the chicken and stir well to coat.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the chicken simmer for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it becomes tender and fully cooked.
- Stir occasionally during the cooking process to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Serve the Helzel chicken as a side dish or use it as an ingredient in other recipes, such as stuffing or soups.
- Optionally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added freshness and presentation.
