Peppered Giz-Dodo with Shrimps

Peppered Giz-Dodo with Shrimps is simply gizzard, plantain, shrimps, and stew. It is commonly served at parties and it’s a crowd-pleaser. It is delicious and I bet if you try this recipe you would be hooked as I am. It’s a New year, enough of chicken…lol. Let’s try another stew with gizzards.

Peppered Giz-Dodo with Shrimps is a very delicious stew that could be paired easily with most of the dishes. For the gizzard used in this recipe, you could cook it as it comes in the pack or cut into small pieces, so you’re free to choose whichever that works for you.  I had so many stews or sauces that are easy to make at home and very tasty.

Let’s get started.
