1

Prepare the Duck Confit

Start by preheating your oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the duck legs in a baking dish and generously season them with salt and pepper. You can also add herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor. Cover the dish with foil and bake for about 2-3 hours, until the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone.

2

Shred the Duck Meat

Once the duck legs are cooked and cooled slightly, use a fork or your hands to shred the meat into small, bite-sized pieces. Discard any excess fat or bones.

3

Prepare the Nachos

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread a layer of your favorite tortilla chips on a baking sheet. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded duck meat over the chips. Next, add a layer of shredded cheese, such as cheddar or Monterey Jack. Feel free to get creative and add other toppings like diced tomatoes, jalapenos, or black beans.

4

Bake and Serve

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning. Once the nachos are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve them warm and watch your guests dive in!
