Sesame Duck Leg Appetizer

Ingredients

  • 25 – 30 duck legs
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger minced
  • 6 – 8 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups pineapple juice
  • 3/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • pan spray

Instructions

  • 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.
