Duck Hunting 10/5/2010

Hit Farmington Bay with Whit today. What an awesome day in the marsh. We limited out and even got a goose to boot. It was so awesome to call the goose into the decoys. I'm looking forward to going out again on Friday.

How do you get rid of 7 ducks?

Garlick Duck Skewers

Recipe out of DU Magazine
6 appetizer servings
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Marinade Time: 1 – 4 hours
Cooking Time: Less than 10 minutes

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

Instructions 1. Slice duck fillets across the "grain" of the meat into 3/4-inch thick strips.

2. 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 (i poked mine with a fork to tenderize and get the seasonings to penetrait, then put in the fridge for 40 min).

3. 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 (I did mine 5-6 more medium than medium rare still tender and juicy).
