Duck is the king of the poultry meats. The only problem with duck is that it's super fatty.
I usually get the smoked stuff. Pan fried, it produces a very nice fat similar to bacon fat and can be used much the same way. Amazing cooking oil and great to fry eggs in above all else.
This time, I got a couple pounds of raw duck and have been marinating it in red pepper sauce (pepper sauce, honey, onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, etc).
Anyway, things I should have done differently - cut the duck up smaller, had more raw onions in the taco. Also, more cilantro. Come to think of it, if I used the smoked duck, would have had some nice crispy duck skin in there, too.
I ended up with a bunch of duck fat, but can't do anything with it because there's so much other stuff in it. Might fry some rice with it tomorrow.
