Taco Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Bourbon BBQ Sauce

In a saucepan, combine bourbon, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens.

2

Cook the Duck

Score the skin of the duck breasts, season with salt and pepper. Place skin-side down in a cold skillet, then heat over medium to render fat. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for an additional 4-6 minutes for medium rare. Remove and let rest before slicing.

3

Prepare the Ranch Slaw

In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, ranch dressing, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

4

Assemble the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave. Layer sliced duck on the tortillas, top with ranch slaw, and drizzle with bourbon BBQ sauce. Serve immediately.
