Anticuchos de Corazón (Beef Heart Skewers)

Ingredients

• 1 lb Beef heart, trimmed and cubed
• 2 tbsp Aji panca paste
• 2 tbsp Coconut aminos
• 1 tbsp Red wine vinegar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 1 tsp Oregano
• to taste Salt and pepper
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1In a medium bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of aji panca paste, 2 tablespoons of coconut aminos, 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of oregano, and salt and pepper to taste.
2. 2Add the 1 lb of beef heart cubes to the bowl with the marinade. Toss everything together until the beef heart cubes are fully coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or for up to overnight.
3. 3Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan and heat until it shimmers.
4. 4Thread the marinated beef heart cubes onto skewers. Aim for about 4-6 cubes per skewer.
5. 5Place the skewers on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until the beef heart is cooked through and has a slightly charred exterior. The internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
6. 6Remove the skewers from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. This helps keep the meat juicy.
7. 7Serve the Anticuchos de Corazón skewers immediately.
