Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs duck breast skin removed and thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional for heat

Method
 

  1. Begin by slicing the duck breast into thin, even strips.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
  3. Place the duck slices in a large zip-top bag and pour in the marinade. Ensure each piece is well coated. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  4. Preheat your dehydrator or oven to 160°F (71°C).
  5. Lay out the marinated duck strips on the trays or racks, making sure they do not touch or overlap.
  6. Dehydrate or bake for 4-6 hours, or until the jerky is dry but still pliable.
  7. Allow to cool before storing in an airtight container.
