Step 3 – Add the Chicken Hearts
- Increase the heat to medium-high.
- Add the chicken hearts to the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned on all sides.
- Warning: Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will cause the hearts to steam rather than sear.
Step 4 – Season and Simmer
- Sprinkle the paprika and oregano over the chicken hearts.
- Stir well to coat evenly.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for another 10 minutes.
- Fact: Paprika not only adds flavor but also a vibrant color to the dish, making it more appealing.
Notes
- If you find the flavor too intense, you can soften it by adding a splash of chicken broth during the simmering process.
- For an extra kick, a pinch of chili flakes goes wonderfully with this dish.
