Edit Note

Prepared this way, wild goose tastes like the finest marinated steak. If you don't have wild goose, substitute a lean cut of beef, such as flank steak.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 taco)

Ingredients

  • 1/4  cup  extravirgin olive oil
  • 1/3  cup  low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2  tablespoons  minced yellow onion
  • 3  teaspoons  bottled minced garlic
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  sugar
  • 1  teaspoon  chili powder
  • 1/2  teaspoon  black pepper
  • 1/2  teaspoon  oregano
  • 1  (1 1/2-pound) boneless goose breast, skinned
  • 1  cup  chopped tomato
  • 1/2  cup  chopped green onions
  • 1/4  cup  chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1  tablespoon  minced jalapeño pepper
  • 1  teaspoon  lemon juice
  • 1/2  teaspoon  salt
  • Cooking spray
  • 8  (6-inch) white corn tortillas
  • 1/2  cup  (4 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 1/2  cups  finely shredded green cabbage

Preparation

Prepare grill.

Combine first 9 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal and marinate in refrigerator overnight, turning bag occasionally. Remove goose from bag, reserving marinade.

Combine tomato, green onions, and next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a medium bowl.

Place goose on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 10 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°, turning and basting frequently with marinade. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut goose diagonally across grain into thin slices. Keep warm.

Warm tortillas according to package directions. Place 3 ounces goose in each tortilla. Top each with 2 tablespoons tomato mixture, 3 teaspoons cheese, and 3 tablespoons cabbage.
