Lamb hearts are a nutrient dense powerhouse. Being both a muscle and organ meat, heart contains high levels of protein as well as the nutrition organ meats are known for. Specifically, lamb heart contains all 9 essential amino acids (making it a complete protein), high levels of B vitamins for increased energy, as well as a range of minerals important for healthy body functions.
Lamb heart can be prepared just like beef heart though requires a small amount of preparation ahead of time.
Once you have your butchered lamb hearts you can prepare just as you would a beef heart. We recommend a 2 hour marinade of olive oil and spices of your choice. Followed by a quick grill or pan fry to cook (about 2 minutes per side). It is important to not overcook your lamb heart as this will lead to a tough texture.
At Acabonac Farms our lambs form a natural ecosystem alongside our other animals. They are cycled through our pastures along with cattle, chicken and pigs; with each animal lending their own special qualities to our regenerative ranching practice.
