When I've had goose it was way too fatty to be good, to me--so the
fact that yours is skinless may actually be a good thing. I suppose you
could roast it basted with butter or olive oil, partially covered with
foil to keep it from drying out since it is skinless. Seasoning is another
thing. I imagine it has a gamey taste that might need to be countered,
so that the usual savory seasonings and an onion in the cavity might
not be enough.
