Then you setup a proper GNU environment, either mingw, cygwin or WSL, get the prereqs and start compiling with the proper target. You can see the used build recipe with the https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc package. (ie https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-gcc)

Questions Regarding working with Mingw_w64, MSYS2, and CMake on Windows
If you take a look at the PKGBUILD file for mingw-w64-cmake base package, you'll see that it applies some patches that make sense for MinGW. Most notably, it makes Ninja the default build generator instead of Visual Studio.
