This is one of my favorite weeknight dinners because it comes together so quickly, ready in just 45 minutes from start to finish. Grilled goat meat is incredibly lean and packed with protein, making it a healthier choice than many other meats, and it takes beautifully to the bright citrus and garlic marinade. The caramelized plantains add a wonderful sweet contrast to the savory meat, and honestly, this dish doesn't require any fancy techniques or expensive ingredients. It's the kind of meal that impresses everyone at the table while keeping your wallet and your schedule happy.
