Shredded Duck & Mango Salad
For a lot of people, myself included, the month of January is dedicated to healthy eating, wiping the slate clean and starting the year fresh. Salad is usually the meal of choice, light, healthy and packed full of nutrition, but often rather dull. I love coming up with recipes for salads that are healthy, but also full of flavor and protein rich, so I’m not left feeling deprived or hungry an hour later.
This duck and mango salad is SO GOOD. First off, I have to come clean and admit duck isn’t a protein I often cook with (often meaning never). It is an incredibly easy poultry to prepare, and this shredded duck is practically fool proof. The meat becomes melt in your mouth tender and dripping with the fragrant sauce, which has hints of ginger, chilli and spice.
This salad has a wonderful combination of flavours and textures. Crisp cucumber, juicy pomegranate seeds, sweet and fruity mango, slightly bitter coriander and refreshing daikon, all topped off with rich shredded duck. This is a salad I could eat over and over again and would happily serve to guests without feeling ashamed. Whether you are trying to eat healthier or just looking for a delicious recipe, this salad ticks every box.
If you make this recipe let me know in the comment section below, I would love to hear what you think or take a photo and tag me (@everylastbite_) on Instagram, I love seeing your photos!
