Goat is a delicious, mild-flavored meat that is overlooked in the U.S. This recipe results in a tender, savory dish that, while unusual, is still basically good old comfort food. This would be great to serve with Israeli-style couscous; alternatively, you could add some potato chunks to the pan halfway through the cooking.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds goat shoulder
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion , chopped
- 10 pitteds prunes , chopped
- 0.25 cups chopped Moroccan preserved lemon
- 0.5 cups dry red wine

Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the goat shoulder with salt and pepper, and place into the pan. Brown quickly on all sides. Add the onions to the pan, and cook, stirring constantly until browned. Mix in the prunes and preserved lemon; cook and stir for a few minutes to blend the flavors. Pour in the red wine and chicken broth, and bring to a simmer.

Grilled Chicken Street Tacos
These chicken street tacos are easy to make with minimal cleanup. Grilling both the chicken and tortillas gives these tacos a nice, subtle smokiness. I like to double up the tortillas to make them easier to eat.
Sheet Pan Roasted Vegetables
Succulent roasted vegetables with a sweet and smoky, herby taste. Good for a main course with noodles or rice, or as a side dish.
Ginger-Turmeric Herbal Tea
This ginger turmeric tea is a tasty alternative to supplements if you have trouble including anti-inflammatory spices in your diet. I believe this tea is popular in Okinawa, Japan. Turmeric is also used for medicinal purposes in India. Remember that turmeric stains; I make this tea in an old mason jar, wrapped in an old tea towel!
