Prepared duck confit, precooked and easily separated into shreds, is the starting point for this meaty sandwich—an interesting alternative for diners looking for a different protein filling. Smoked gouda cheese and an arugula salad complete the build, which is piled on ciabatta rolls.
Ingredients
Duck Filling:
1 tbsp. olive oil
1/4 tsp. minced garlic
2 oz. marsala wine
4 oz. duck confit, warmed, deboned and pulled

2 tsp. minced kosher pickles
1 tsp. mustard vinaigrette dressing

1 tsp. garlic butter
2 thin slices smoked gouda cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 oz. crispy apple chips
