This is one of my favorite weeknight dinners because it comes together in under an hour and tastes absolutely incredible. Grilled goat meat is incredibly lean and packed with protein, making it a healthier choice than many other meats. The cassava adds a wonderful earthy sweetness and pairs beautifully with the herb marinade of garlic, thyme, and rosemary. What I love most is how simple the whole process is: you season everything, get the grill hot, and dinner is on the table before you know it. It's rustic, satisfying, and genuinely impressive enough to serve to guests.
