Giblets, chicken, boiled

Chicken giblets are the internal organs of a chicken. The boiled giblets described here are a mixed sample of heart, liver and gizzard. They mainly provide protein and fat, along with several vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they contain 23g of protein, 7.1g of fat, 6.8mg of iron and 15µg of vitamin B12.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Giblets also contain cholesterol. Added salt, sauces or cooking fats can change the nutritional content of a dish. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
