Stir Fry with Rosehips Preserved Meyer Lemon Marinade
Want a formula for better flavor? Marinate your protein. Pick your veg. Add aromatics. Heat a neutral oil. Stir-fry, baby, stir fry.
We sourced fresh duck from a local farm. Patted the pieces dry. Applied the thinnest coating of Rosehips Preserved Meyer Lemon about 30-60 minutes before cooking, while the meat came to room temperature.
Preserved Lemon gets the party started — a meat tenderizer and flavor enhancer.
Our Rosehips blend is herbaceous and floral, a staunch character that stands up to fowl while taking the edge off.
Rice bran oil works its magic — get it crackling hot, remove any excess liquid from the duck and sear it 60-90 seconds a side. When pieces start to balloon and the edges brown (but don’t burn), flip. Taste for texture.
Drain cooked duck on a paper towel while you heat aromatics in the same pan. We’re partial to ginger and garlic. Lots. Once fragrant, add your veg. We chose snap peas and red peppers for color and crunch (and that’s what was in the fridge). Quick, high-heat flash fry.
Toss the duck back in to combine. Taste. Add a pinch of Chinese Five Spice if you’re a fan.
