Chicken hearts may not be the first item on everyone’s grocery list, but they are a nutrient-dense food steeped in culinary tradition.

For centuries, our ancestors valued chicken hearts not just for their flavor, but for their ability to nourish the body with essential nutrients. 

Packed with protein, iron, and vital B vitamins, chicken hearts are a powerhouse of nutrition.


Why Our Ancestors Ate Chicken Hearts

In traditional diets, no part of the animal went to waste.

Organs like chicken hearts were prized for their concentrated nutrients and ability to sustain energy and vitality.

Known as a "superfood" in ancestral eating, chicken hearts were enjoyed in soups, skewered over open flames, or slow-cooked for maximum flavor. 


The Benefits of Chicken Hearts
  • Rich in Protein: A lean, high-protein option that supports muscle growth and repair.
  • Boosts Energy: Packed with iron and B vitamins like B12, which combat fatigue and promote healthy blood cells.
  • Promotes Heart Health: A natural source of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), which supports cardiovascular function.
  • Supports Metabolism: Contains selenium and zinc, vital for thyroid function and immunity.

How to Prepare Chicken Hearts

Chicken hearts are simple to prepare and can be enjoyed in a variety of dishes. Here are some popular methods:

  • Grilled: Skewer the hearts, marinate them in garlic, olive oil, and spices, and grill for a smoky, tender treat.
  • Sautéed: Cook with onions, garlic, and butter for a quick, flavorful side dish.
  • Stews and Soups: Add to broths or stews for a rich, hearty texture and flavor boost.
  • Roasted: Roast in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and your favorite herbs for a crispy finish.
