Sesame Duck Leg Appetizer Recipe - Cooking Index
Duck legs take a lot of cooking time to render tender. Save up your duck legs in a separate bag and make this recipe when you have a bunch of folks coming over for a duck dinner.
Courses: Starters and appetizers25 | Duck legs - (to 30) | |
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Minced fresh ginger |
6 | Garlic cloves - (to 8) - minced | |
1/2 cup | 80g / 2.8oz | Brown sugar |
1 1/2 cups | 355ml | Pineapple juice |
3/4 cup | 177ml | Rice vinegar |
1 cup | 237ml | Soy sauce |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Sesame oil |
3 tablespoons | 45ml | Sesame seeds |
Pan spray - as needed |
Coat a large baking dish evenly with pay spray. Add duck legs and place in a preheated 400 degree oven, covered with foil or lid, for 1 hour. Remove pan from oven and pour off any liquid in pan.
Combine remaining ingredients and pour over legs, just enough to barely cover them. Reserve any extra liquid. Cover and place back in the oven for 1 1/2 hours, checking occasionally to make sure that the liquid does not cook out of the pan completely. Add additional liquid, if necessary.
After 1 1/2 hours, check the legs every 20 minutes until the meat pulls off the bone with moderate pressure, but don't wait until the meat falls off the bone. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
