Step 1
Wash the chicken gizzards. Remove any fat and yellow membranes inside, if present. Cut the gizzards in half and place them in a heavy-bottomed pot. Simmer over low heat until almost cooked. If there is not enough liquid, add more water. The gizzards should become tender.

Step 4
Rinse the rice thoroughly in several changes of water. Place it in a bowl and pour hot water over it, but not boiling water. Let it sit for an hour. Season with salt to taste. Then spread the rice evenly over the stomachs and add hot water so that it is about a finger's height above the rice. Turn on the heat, but do not cover the pot with a lid. Cook the rice with the stomachs over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, until the liquid on top has evaporated, but some remains at the bottom.

Then, gather the rice into a mound towards the center of the pot. Make indentations in the rice down to the bottom of the pot. Cover the pot with a lid, turn the heat to the lowest setting, and cook the rice for another 20-25 minutes.
