Cooking with Kokanee Quinn: Orange Glazed Goose Breast
It’ stime to use that goose meat!
Oranges are the go-to here, but clementines or mandarins will happily step in if that’s what have! Kokanee Quinn found this amazing recipe where thyme is the herb of choice because it just ‘gets’ citrus. This dish looks fancy enough for the holidays, but there’s no rule saying you can’t make it on a Tuesday night and impress everyone at the table.
