Goat Meat
Good nutritional profile
Goat meat (chevon; called mutton in South Asia), values for raw meat.
Goat is the most widely eaten red meat in much of Africa, South Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean, mostly in curries, stews and roasts. A 150 g raw portion gives about 165 kcal and 31 g of protein with only 3.5 g of fat, and is high in iron (4.3 mg), zinc (6 mg), riboflavin and vitamin B12. It is much leaner than lamb, so it dries out quickly and is usually cooked slowly with liquid.
