4 clear steps
Place all the above ingredients, other than the heart, in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
Clean the heart, removing all fat. Cut into bite-sized cubes. Place the heart pieces into the marinade mixture, and leave to marinate for about 10 hours or overnight. The heart should be completely covered by the marinade. Keep the bowl covered in the refrigerator while marinating.
After marinating, thread the meat onto skewers. If desired, at this stage some additional ingredients such as bell peppers (capsicum) or corn-on-cob (cut to a similar size to the heart) may be also added to the skewers.
Grill the skewers, turning frequently, until the heart is cooked through to 71°C / 160°F. For basting, first bring any marinade that touched raw meat to a full boil; never brush with unboiled used marinade. Serve immediately.
