Goat and Butternut Squash Stew

This is a tasty, spicy dish for a cold fall or winter evening and can be a good way to introduce goat to people who think they don't like goat. If you're not a fan of a long saute process, it can also be prepared in a slow cooker. Serve over rice.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander

  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

  • ½ teaspoon sweet paprika

  • ½ teaspoon smoked sweet paprika

  • ½ teaspoon smoked hot paprika

  • ½ teaspoon ancho chile powder

  • 1 (3 pound) bone-in goat shank

  • ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste

  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 (1 pound) butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • 1 cinnamon stick

  • 1 pinch saffron

Directions

  1. Mix cumin, coriander, ginger, sweet paprika, smoked sweet paprika, smoked hot paprika, and chile powder together in a bowl.

  2. Rub goat shank with about 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

  3. Heat coconut oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until melted and shimmering. Cook goat shank in hot oil until browned as completely as you can get it, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove shank to a bowl, reserving oil in the skillet.

  4. Reduce heat under the skillet to low. Cook and stir onion in the retained oil until soft, 7 to 10 minutes. Add butternut squash and garlic; cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Sprinkle the cumin mixture over the squash mixture; cook and stir 1 minute more.

  5. Stir tomatoes, water, cinnamon stick, and saffron into the squash mixture; return goat shank to the Dutch oven, bring the liquid to a simmer, and cook until the goat meat is tender and falling from the bone, 90 minutes to 2 hours.

  6. Remove shank from Dutch oven to a cutting board. Strip meat from the bone and cut into bite-size pieces. Discard bone. Stir meat into the squash mixture, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the meat is reheated, about 5 minutes.

Roast Greek Lamb with Tzatziki, Roasted Vegetables, and Greek Salad

Sunday roasts and summer are two of my favorite things. But when it's too hot outside, the last thing you want is a full roast with gravy and all the trimmings. It just seems wrong. It's also far too hot to be in a kitchen for long. Greece is famous for its lamb dishes. So what better way to unwind on a warm summer Sunday afternoon than to create this laid-back, slow-roasted Greek lamb feast served with the perfect sides?
