Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Chinese
Ingredients: 500 g Duck breast; 2 tbsp Honey; 2 tbsp Soy sauce; 1 tbsp Sesame oil; 1 tsp Grated fresh ginger; 2 cloves Garlic; 1 Salt and pepper to taste; 1 Wooden or metal skewers; HOISIN SAUCE:; 1 clove Garlic; 6 tbsp Soy sauce; 3 tbsp Peanut butter; 1 1/2 tbsp Brown sugar or honey; 3 tbsp Rice vinegar; 3 tbsp Sesame oil; 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce; 1 tsp Miso (optional); 1 tsp Pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Step 2

Add the duck breast cubes to the mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator, ideally for several hours so the flavors blend well.
Step 3

Preheat the grill or oven to medium-high heat.
Step 4

Thread the marinated duck cubes onto the skewers, distributing them evenly.
Step 5

Cook the skewers on the grill or in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with the remaining marinade.
Step 6

Remove the skewers from the heat when the duck is cooked through and lightly browned on the outside.
Step 7

HOISIN SAUCE:
Step 8

Mix all ingredients well with an immersion blender or food processor until achieving a smooth texture somewhat thicker than barbecue sauce.

Notes:
Hoisin sauce is a pillar of Cantonese cuisine, often called "Chinese barbecue sauce". Its name means "seafood" in Chinese, but curiously it contains no seafood ingredients; the term refers to its traditional use with seafood, although today it is the perfect complement to duck.
