How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh chicken hearts
- You should go to the market early to buy fresh chicken hearts, just slaughtered. Additionally, you can also buy chicken hearts at reputable food stores or supermarkets,…
- Choose chicken hearts that are bright red, and when pressed lightly, they should feel highly elastic, with a shiny surface.
- Do not choose chicken hearts that show signs of sliminess, have a fishy smell, or have a pale or dark red color; these may be chicken hearts that have been slaughtered and frozen for a long time.
How to choose delicious and safe zucchini
- You should prioritize selecting straight zucchini, which feels firm and not soft when held in hand.
- Choose zucchini that has an undamaged skin, without bruises or insect infestations. The stem of the zucchini should be intact and fresh.
- Additionally, select zucchini that is of moderate length and not excessively green or irregular in color, as these are usually the standard ones, neither too young nor too old.
- Avoid choosing zucchini that are too large or too small, or with a stem that is no longer fresh, as these are not tasty zucchini.

Preparing the ingredients
To remove the odor and clean the chicken hearts, rub them with salt and rinse thoroughly with water. Cut off the excess fat at the top of the hearts and slice them in half. Continue to rub with salt and rinse with water 2 – 3 times, then drain.
Tips for cleaning chicken hearts effectively, without odor
- You need to use salt to rub all over the chicken hearts, be gentle as too much pressure can break them and make them unappetizing.
- Then add a little vinegar or white wine with the hearts, soak for about 5 minutes, gently massage, and rinse with water.
Green onions should have their roots cut off, washed clean, and chopped into bite-sized pieces about 1 finger length.
Garlic should be peeled, crushed, chopped finely, and divided into 2 parts. Zucchini should be peeled, washed clean, and sliced about 1/3 finger thick.

Marinate and stir-fry chicken hearts
Marinate the chicken hearts with 1/2 spoon of monosodium glutamate, 1/2 spoon of seasoning, 1/2 spoon of soy sauce, 1/2 spoon of ground pepper, and some minced garlic, and mix well. Marinate for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to soak into the chicken hearts.
Heat a pan on the stove, add 1 spoon of cooking oil. When the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken hearts and stir-fry on high heat for about 1 minute, then transfer the chicken hearts to a bowl to keep them separate.
