Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped onions, diced bell pepper, lime juice, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Goat Meat

    Cut the goat meat into chunks and add it to the marinade. Ensure the meat is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for better flavor.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the marinated goat meat and brown it on all sides.

  4. 4

    Add Tomatoes and Water

    Chop the tomatoes and add them to the pot. Pour in the water and bring to a boil.

  5. 5

    Simmer the Dish

    Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, until the meat is tender and the flavors meld together.

  6. 6

    Finish with Cilantro

    Once the meat is tender, chop the cilantro and add it to the pot. Stir well and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with additional cilantro if desired. Enjoy your Chivo with rice or tortillas.
