Step 1
Soak 4 wooden skewers in water for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the beef heart and cut into 1-inch cubes; cut the onion and bell pepper into 1-inch pieces.
Step 2
In a bowl, toss the beef heart cubes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. In another bowl, toss the onion and bell pepper with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 3
Thread the beef heart, onion, and bell pepper onto the skewers, alternating pieces. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Grill the skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef heart is browned on the outside but still slightly pink inside and the vegetables are charred at the edges.
Step 5
Remove from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
