Chicken hearts in a frying pan
1 serving
20 minutes
Chicken hearts in a skillet are a tender and aromatic dish of Russian cuisine, featuring a rich flavor with a slight spiciness from Dijon mustard and spices. Hearts soaked in creamy sauce become surprisingly soft and juicy. Historically, offal has always been valued in Russian cuisine for its nutrition and availability, and this recipe is a vivid example of their skillful use. Frying over high heat gives the hearts an appetizing golden crust, while subsequent stewing in the sauce makes them incredibly tender. The dish can be served with mashed potatoes, buckwheat, or fresh vegetables, creating a harmonious combination of flavors. Due to its simplicity in preparation and rich aroma, this treat is perfect for family dinners or cozy gatherings.
