Ingredients

  • 1 pound Chicken Hearts
  • Water

Instructions

  • Rinse the chicken hearts well. Trim if needed.
  • Boiled: Place the chicken hearts in a pot and cover with water about two inches above the chicken hearts. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until done (internal temp is 165°F). Drain the broth into a container and save it to use as a substitute for chicken broth. Cool the hearts to room temperature.
  • Air Fried: Coat the air fryer basket with oil to prevent sticking. Place the chicken hearts in the basket. Set the air fryer to 350°F and cook for 8 minutes or until done (internal temp is 165°F). Halfway through air frying, remove the basket and shake them around or turn them over.
  • Baked: Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place chicken hearts on the baking sheet and bake them for 10 to 15 minutes or until the internal temperature is 165°F.
  • Dehydrated: Place chicken hearts on a dehydrator tray. Dehydrate at 165°F for 12 to 16 hours until all moisture is removed. Check on them a few times as needed.
  • Cool the treats to room temperature before giving them to your dog.
