Ingredients
- 6 – 8 skinless duck breast fillet halves
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 10 – 12 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Wooden skewers soaked in water for 30 minutes
Directions
- Slice duck fillets across the “grain” of the meat into 3/4-inch thick strips.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients (except skewers). Add sliced duck to bowl, toss to coat evenly, cover and refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours. Turning occasionally.
- Remove meat from marinade and drain, but do not pay dry. Place skewers into meat and grill to desired doneness over a well-oiled, medium-hot grill. For medium-rare, cooking time is approximately 3 – 4 minutes.
Notes
How To Tame Your Garlic
Roasting whole garlic bulbs or individual cloves will make them sweeter and less pungent than fresh. When using a whole bulb, slice about 1/4-inch off the top and place in some heavy-duty foil. Drizzle a tablespoon or two of olive oil over the top, close up the foil and place in a 400 degree oven for about 25 – 30 minutes. Once roasted, the softened garlic can be squeezed out of the bulb and used in place of fresh garlic.
