INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound of beef heart
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil (another vegetable oil such as olive oil will work as well)
  • Corn Tortillas
  • Guacamole
  • Salsa Roja

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Remove any hard fat and sinew from the outside of the heart. Flip over and remove all remaining fat and skin. The fat can be rendered or discarded. Slice the meat into 1 cm cubes. Mix with the oregano and cumin.

  • Heart is such a tender cut that it hardly requires any toppings to achieve overall taco-deliciousness. Guacamole and salsa roja are recommended. Serve over warm corn tortillas.
