Serve these flavourful morsels with a marinara sauce over some pasta, or as small bites coated with BBQ sauce, over freshly baked dinner rolls.
Duck Spring Rolls
Use cooked duck meat in combination with shredded cabbage, carrots, pak choy and other veggies encased in spring roll wrappers. Brush each roll with a bit of oil and air fry them until crispy. Serve hot with a dipping sauce like hoisin or sweet plum sauce for a delicious contrast of flavour.
Turkey Skewers
Thread chunks of cooked turkey onto skewers alternating with cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices and cubes of cheese. Serve alongside a sliced baguette and a dipping sauce like tzatziki or ranch dressing. Elevate the flavour of your turkey meat by grilling it on a pan, to give it a slightly crisp texture.
