Here's a dish I absolutely love making for dinner parties because it comes together in under an hour. Grilled goat with leek is elegant yet surprisingly simple to prepare, and the tender meat pairs beautifully with caramelized leeks. Goat is such a lean protein that it's actually better for you than chicken, plus it has this wonderful flavor that really shines when you grill it with fresh herbs. The best part? You probably have most of these ingredients in your kitchen already, and the whole thing takes just forty five minutes from start to table. Your guests will be impressed, I promise.
