Doctrine
Heart is the richest whole-food source of CoQ10 — the co-factor mitochondria need to make ATP.
Why this recipe
Heart, cooked like the steak it is
Beef heart is the leanest complete protein there is, with more CoQ10 than any other cut, and it tastes like steak because structurally it is one — dense, muscular and best cooked hot and fast.
Masa tortillas keep the carbohydrate on the safe-starch side of the line. Sear it rare, slice it thin, and most people will not know they are eating an organ until you tell them.
