Provided by Claire Robinson

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 duck confit legs
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 (4-ounce) log goat cheese, softened and divided
3 scallions, thinly sliced
8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
Kosher salt and freshly cracked white pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the duck, skin-side down, covered, in a large heavy nonstick skillet over moderately-low heat until the skin is well-browned and crisp and the duck is heated through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the duck and pour off all but 1 teaspoon of the fat from the pan and reserve. Cook the onions in the remaining duck fat over moderate heat until crispy and brown, about 10 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons water to the pan and scrape the bottom of the pan until the water evaporates. Remove the skin from the duck and reserve. Shred the meat and place in a medium bowl.
  • Place the duck skin back in the pan and cook over a moderate heat, until the skin is crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the skin from pan, chop and put in the same bowl as the shredded meat. Pour off all the duck fat from the pan and reserve the fat.
  • Place 1 tortilla on your work surface and spread 1 tablespoon goat cheese, 2 tablespoons of the onions, 1/2 cup of the duck mixture and 1 tablespoon scallions on top of a tortilla. Lay another tortilla on top of the scallions.
  • Brush a nonstick skillet with 1/2 teaspoon of the reserved duck fat over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Cook the quesadilla turning once, until golden, about 6 minutes. Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve immediately.
  • BYOC: What can't you throw in a quesadilla? Try some Monterey Jack cheese or some pickled jalapenos.

The duck confit quesadillas were a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less duck confit and more cheese.
