#39 Duck with Lemons

 

This was the first BIG entree from A Feast of Ice and Fire that I have tackled.  I found it to be a perfect excuse to invite a few friends over to share the bounty!

Duck typically comes with a packet of orange glaze.  This recipe blows away ANY factory manufactured orangish glazelike product that you will ever find wedged all up in a frozen duck, so you just throw that bad boy out and stuff that duck with lemons instead.*

Historically, I have found duck to be a very fatty bird.  The citrus of the lemon cut through that greasiness and left the meat tender and flavorful. 

Pictured with Modern Beans and Bacon, to be posted soon.

* There's a little more to in than that.  You should look up the recipe in A Feast of Ice and Fire or at the Inn of the Crossroads blog.
