Ingredients

For the Sauce:

• Juice of 5 whole oranges (about 1 cup)

• 2 sprigs fresh thyme

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• ½ shallot, finely chopped

For the Stir-Fry:

• 1 goose breast, thinly sliced

• 1 cup day-old cooked rice

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• ½ shallot, thinly sliced

• 2 carrots, cut into batonnets

• 1 red bell pepper, cut into batonnets

Instructions

1. Make the Orange-Thyme Sauce:

   • Combine orange juice, thyme sprigs, garlic, and shallot in a small saucepan.

   • Simmer over medium heat until reduced by about half (roughly 10–12 minutes).

   • Strain out the solids and set the sauce aside.

2. Cook the Goose:

   • In a large wok or skillet over high heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil.

   • Add the sliced goose breast and 1 tablespoon of Juicy Jake’s seasoning. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until browned and just cooked through. Remove and set aside.

3. Stir-Fry the Veggies and Rice:

   • Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan.

   • Sauté garlic and shallot for 30 seconds until fragrant.

   • Add the carrots and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until starting to soften.

   • Toss in the snow peas and broccoli, stir-frying for another minute.

   • Push the veggies to the side, add the rice, and sprinkle in the remaining 1 tablespoon of Juicy Jake’s seasoning. Stir everything together to combine and heat through (about 2–3 minutes).

4. Combine and Finish:

   • Return the goose to the pan.

   • Pour in the orange-thyme sauce and toss well to coat all ingredients evenly.
