  • 2 scallions, chopped
  • 1 Scotch bonnet pepper, seeded and minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to brown the goat meat before cooking it in the curry sauce, as this adds flavor and texture to the dish.
  • If you don't have chicken broth, you can use beef or vegetable broth instead.
  • For a creamier curry sauce, add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt before serving.
  • For a more authentic flavor, use Jamaican curry powder, which contains a blend of aromatic spices.
  • Don't forget to remove the Scotch bonnet pepper before serving, as it is very spicy and can be dangerous if eaten whole.
