If you're looking to get more out of your meat, chicken hearts are a good place to start. Rich in nutrients and ready in minutes, they're a cut that earns a permanent spot in any well-stocked freezer.
What Are Chicken Hearts?
Chicken hearts are small, firm pieces of cardiac muscle with a flavor similar to dark chicken meat. They're popular in cuisines around the world, from Brazilian churrasco skewers to Japanese yakitori. Because they cook quickly and have an approachable flavor, they're a natural starting point if you're new to nose-to-tail eating.
What Do Chicken Hearts Taste Like?
Think roasted chicken thigh: rich, meaty, and satisfying. When cooked right, they're tender with a firm bite. If you find chicken breast a little one-note, hearts bring noticeably more flavor to the plate.
Rotated on Regenerative Pastures Seasonally
Our chickens rotate on regenerative pastures throughout the warm season, with shelter and outdoor access during colder months. We've seen how this kind of active, seasonal outdoor life contributes to the overall health of the birds and to the quality of the meat, organs included.
Explore our Chicken favorites bundle to try the full range of what our pasture-rotated birds have to offer.
Free From Antibiotics, GMOs, & Growth Promotants
Our ethically raised chicken is free from antibiotics, hormones, and GMOs. For organ meats especially, sourcing matters. Organs reflect the animal's diet and environment.
Chicken Heart vs. Beef Heart
Chicken hearts are bite-sized, need minimal prep, and cook in just a few minutes. Beef heart is a larger cut that usually requires trimming and slicing, and it carries a stronger, more pronounced flavor. If you're new to organ meats, chicken hearts are a great place to start.
Chicken Heart vs. Chicken Liver
Hearts and livers come from the same bird, but they're quite different on the plate. Hearts hold up well to high heat and work great in a quick weeknight pan-fry or threaded onto skewers. Livers are softer with a stronger flavor, and they shine in blended preparations like pâté or pan sauces.
Chicken Heart Nutrition and Benefits
Chicken hearts are a natural source of CoQ10, a compound found in cardiac muscle tissue. They also deliver protein, iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. It's a lot of nutrition packed into a small, easy-to-cook cut.
How to Cook Chicken Hearts
Rinse and pat dry before cooking, and trim any visible connective tissue if you prefer. From there, you've got options. A hot skillet with garlic and herbs is one of our favorites. They also do well threaded onto skewers for the grill, or simmered low and slow in a stew. The key is not to overdo it, since hearts firm up fast. Pair them with our ethically raised chicken breasts for a well-rounded plate that makes the most of the whole bird.
