Turkey Heart Stew

To prepare a delicious dish from chicken hearts, we start by cleaning the hearts, removing any membranes or fat. Once cleaned, we cut them into uniform-sized cubes to ensure even cooking. Next, we take care of the onion, chopping it finely so that the flavors blend perfectly with those of the hearts.

In a large pan, we heat the oil. It is important to heat it well so that the hearts fry correctly. We add the diced hearts and fry them over high heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until they change color and become slightly browned. This step is essential to achieve a pleasant texture and an intense flavor.

After the hearts are fried, we pour about 300 ml of chicken broth into the pan, which will add depth of flavor to the dish. We cover the pan with a lid and let it simmer on low heat so that the flavors concentrate. It is important to check occasionally, ensuring they do not stick to the bottom of the pan.

When the broth has significantly reduced, we add 2 tablespoons of vinegar and crushed garlic, which will provide a pleasant contrast and a note of freshness. We continue with 250 ml of wine, which will intensify the flavors, and then add salt, pepper, the two bay leaves, and the finely chopped onion. We cover again and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, so the onion softens and the flavors combine.

After 10 minutes, it is time to add the peeled and diced tomatoes, as well as the remaining broth. Freshly chopped rosemary will give the dish an unmistakable fragrance. We let everything simmer under the lid, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces and the hearts are perfectly cooked. If the hearts are not fully cooked, we can add more water or broth to ensure we achieve a tender texture.

This dish is ideally served with creamy mashed potatoes or boiled potatoes, which will perfectly complement the intense flavors of the hearts. Enjoy your meal!
