Duck Bites - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
2 skinned, boned duck breast halves
16 whole water chestnuts, drained
8 slices bacon, cut in half

Preparation

Whisk the sherry, soy sauce, peanut oil, and ginger together in a mixing bowl until evenly blended. Cut the duck breast into 16 pieces and place into the marinade along with the water chestnuts; toss to coat. Set aside to marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Drain the marinade from the duck meat and discard. Place a duck piece onto a water chestnut, and wrap with half a bacon slice. Secure with a toothpick, and place onto a broiler pan. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Broil until the bacon is just crisp, about 10 minutes, turning once.
