Marinate the Chicken Gizzards: In a bowl, combine all Marinade ingredients. Add the Chicken Gizzards, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
Prepare the Breading: In a separate bowl, whisk together all Breading ingredients.
Coat the Gizzards: Remove the gizzards from the marinade and dredge them thoroughly in the Breading mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
Fry the Gizzards: Heat the Vegetable Oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the breaded gizzards in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot.
Fry for 5-7 minutes per batch, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the gizzards with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately.
