How easy would you like them to be? Do you have a pressure cooker?

no dont have a pressure cooker. my grandmother used to cook them all the time when i was lil. she usaully fried them i believe but i cant ask her the recipe becuase she cant remember anything from last week let alone like 15 years ago.

If you want to fry them, that shouldn't be too hard. Did she put a breading on them? If so, you can make a simplistic one by beating an egg in a bowl and putting flour and/or bread crumbs -- you should probably add some pepper and salt, too -- in another bowl. After that, you'd dip the chicken bits in the egg, then roll them around in the flour/bread crumbs, and put them in a hot pan of oil -- like vegetable or olive oil -- to fry them.

Whether you bread it or not, you will wanna fry the gizzards to make them palatable: What is Pan Frying?

If you don't use breading, you should at least use something like onions for flavor and moisture.

thanks i'll have to try the breading idea.

My family generally just boils them with a large chopped yellow onion and a LOT of cracked black pepper for about 2.5-3 hours. This renders them tender, a little spicy and delicious.
