Trin for trin

1
Season the goat meat generously with salt and black pepper.
Ca. 5 min.
2
Heat the canola oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Ca. 2 min.
3
Sear the goat meat in batches until browned on all sides, then remove from the pot and set aside.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Do not overcrowd the pot; sear in batches to ensure good browning.
4
Reduce the heat to medium and add the yellow onion to the pot, cooking until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Ca. 7 min.
5
Stir in the minced garlic and ají amarillo paste, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Be careful not to burn the garlic.
6
Add the blended cilantro, cumin, and oregano, stirring well to combine.
Ca. 1 min.
7
Pour in the dark beer and chicken broth, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: This step helps deglaze the pot and add more flavor.
8
Return the seared goat meat to the pot, ensuring it is mostly submerged in the liquid.
Ca. 1 min.
9
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the goat meat is fork-tender.
Ca. 3 t.
Kokkens note: Check occasionally and stir, adding a little more broth or water if the stew becomes too dry.
10
Once the meat is tender, remove the pot from the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Ca. 10 min.
Kokkens note: Resting allows the flavors to meld and the meat to reabsorb juices.
11
Serve the Seco de Cabrito hot with cooked canario beans and white rice.
