Skewers

Papas Doradas

Peruvian Corn

Spicy Limo Sauce

Method

Preparing the Skewers

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef Heart

    Cut the beef heart into 1-inch cubes. In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef heart cubes and mix well to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Assemble Skewers

    Thread the marinated beef heart cubes onto soaked skewers, packing them tightly but leaving some space between pieces for even cooking.

Cooking the Papas Doradas

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the yellow potatoes into wedges. In a bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 4

    Bake the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Spread the potato wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.

Cooking the Corn

  1. 5

    Boil the Corn

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the Peruvian corn and salt. Cook for about 30-40 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

Making the Spicy Limo Sauce

  1. 6

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a blender, combine limo chili, garlic, lime juice, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Grilling the Skewers

  1. 7

    Grill the Skewers

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred.

Serving the Dish

  1. 8

    Plate the Anticuchos

    Serve the grilled beef heart skewers with papas doradas and boiled Peruvian corn on the side. Drizzle with spicy limo sauce for added flavor.
