According to the Bing search engine there are 4 in Illinois. The nearest
is 60 miles north of me in Normal, IL. Long way to go for fats food.

The nearest one to me is over 70 miles northwest in Peoria. And in a
VERY dodgy neighbourhood. I was never tempted to stop there when I was
delivering to the AutoZone right down the street.

1 tb Everglades or Mrs. Dash
- seasoning, to taste
2 ts Smoked paprika
1 ts Black pepper
Marinate chicken gizzards in ingredients 2-4 for 8-12
hours to overnight. The buttermilk will help tenderize
the gizzards
Drain chicken gizzards/livers. In a mixing bowl combine
all the breading ingredients. Bread the giblets, making
sure you coat them evenly.
Set deep fryer @ 325oF/165oC.
Deep fry for 4-6 minutes or until golden brown. Drain
on paper towels
Plate up and serve with your favorite hot sauce!
If you want really tender gizzards, simmer the chicken
gizzards in some water with a little salt, garlic powder
and hot sauce for 10-15 minutes. Cool, bread, then fry.
Makes 2 to 4 serings
