Authentic Jamaican Curry Goat Before we dive into the cooking, let’s gather all of our ingredients to make sure we have everything we need!

Ingredients

2 pounds of goat meat, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons of Jamaican curry powder
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1-inch piece of ginger, minced
1-2 Scotch bonnet peppers, chopped (adjust to taste)
2 sprigs of fresh thyme
2-3 cups of water or beef broth
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: potatoes or carrots for additional flavor and heartiness

Instructions

In a large bowl, marinate the goat meat with curry powder, salt, pepper, garlic, and ginger. Let it sit for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.
Add the marinated goat meat to the pot, allowing it to cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
Add the chopped Scotch bonnet peppers and thyme, stirring well to combine all ingredients.
Pour in enough water or beef broth to cover the goat meat. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the goat meat is tender.
If you’re adding potatoes or carrots, toss them in about halfway through the cooking process so they can absorb the flavors.
Check occasionally to ensure there is enough liquid, adding more water or broth as needed. Taste and adjust seasonings to your preference.
Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve your Jamaican Curry Goat over rice and enjoy this festive dish!
