Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the goat meat with salt, black pepper, thyme, allspice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the marinated goat meat and cook until browned on all sides.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables and Liquids

    Add diced carrots, chopped tomatoes, and the whole Scotch bonnet pepper to the pot. Pour in the coconut milk and broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Stew

    Cover and let the stew simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the goat meat is tender. Stir occasionally and add more broth if necessary.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the goat meat is tender, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Remove the Scotch bonnet pepper before serving. Serve hot with rice or bread.
