With Valentine’s Day around the corner it’s time to gear up for that special day. Start with some firm, amazing and delicious breasts,  like the fresh duck breasts we got from our friends at Maple Leaf Farms. Get them in the mood with a night (or at least four hours in the fridge) marinating with salt (as in brine), tequila,  lime juice, Doc’s Chili Powder, cilantro, onion and garlic. Remove, dry and rub them all over with spices to introduce a little heat then cook them low and slow with some good hardwoods until succulently sultry and smokey. For the final touches introduce some zesty home made fire roasted corn salsa and tangy roasted poblano  tomatillo salsa verde to the party. Then drop them all onto a fresh from scratch tortilla and…? If you have properly followed this prescription for deliciousness you have created the ducked up, Doc’d up taco; or as we like to call them, Docos!
