What to do:
1. Combine marinade ingredients in a large sealable bag. Add chevon, green and yellow peppers and onions. Refrigerate and marinate overnight.
2. Allow meat and vegetables to come to room temperature and remove from marinade. Thread meat onto soaked skewers alternating with pieces of peppers and onion. Broil over hot charcoal for about 10 - 15 min. Serve in warm Greek (pocketless) pitas topped with roma tomatoes, tzatziki and feta cheese if desired.
For optimum tenderness and palatability choose PRIME CHEVON - the meat from a properly finished goat less than 10 months of age.
