Preparation

1h 45 mins

Low

Place small goat in a wide baking dish, season with coarse salt, and pour in water until cabrito is completely covered. Squeeze a lime and let rest for at least 3 hours so the meat tenderizes. Drain small goat and pat-dry with a kitchen towel. In a deep skillet, heat olive oil over medium-low heat, add onion and garlic, and cook over low heat. Add tomato, fry slightly, and season with pepper. Remove from heat, let cool, and set aside. Place marinated small goat on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Place fried vegetables on top and bay leaves and white wine. There is no need to season with salt as small goat would have absorbed salt while marinating. Bake at 352 °F for at least 1 hour and 30 minutes flipping constantly. It’s not necessary to cover small goat since the juices will make it both tender and brown. For the salsa: In a skillet, heat oil and fry onion, garlic, tomato and tomatillo until cooked through and until the vegetables turn color. Add dried chipotle chile and cook slightly to keep the salsa from turning bitter. Set aside. In a molcajete, place a bit of coarse salt and allspice berries and crush with the pestle until powdered. Add fried onion, garlic, tomato, tomatillo, and chipotle chile. Crush until a molcajete salsa is obtained. Remove small goat from oven. Serve oven-roasted cabrito hot with new potatoes, corn tortillas, and salsa on the side.
