1 moulard duck breast (about 1 pound), fat layer trimmed to 1/3 inch
Salt and freshly ground pepper

1/2 pickled jalapeno
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1
Preheat the oven to 350.

Roast the breast for about 10 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 135.

Let the duck breast rest for 10 minutes, then slice it very thinly across the grain.
7
Meanwhile, in a mini food processor, combine the cilantro, pickled jalapeno, garlic and lime juice and pulse until the cilantro is finely chopped.
8
Add the oil and puree until fairly smooth.
9
Season with salt and pepper.

Arrange the tortillas on a work surface and top them with the duck, carrot, scallion and radish sprouts.
11
Drizzle with the sauce, fold the tacos and serve right away.
