Ingredients

1 (5 to 6-pound) duck

1/4 cup canola oil

1 pound ground pork

1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic

7 tablespoons Jan's Special spice, recipe follows

1/4 cup masa harina

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup beer

1 onion, finely chopped

1 red pepper, finely chopped

3 poblano chiles, finely chopped

1 jalapeno, minced

4 cups chicken stock

1 (4-ounce) can green chiles, chopped

2 corn tortillas, fried crisp or 8 tortilla chips

Kosher salt

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves

3 tablespoons lime juice

1/2 cup sliced scallions, for garnish

1/2 cup sour cream, for garnish

Jan's Special Spice Mix:

1 tablespoon cumin seeds

1 teaspoon coriander seeds

3 tablespoons kosher salt

1 tablespoon paprika

2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

Remove the duck meat from the bones. Remove the skin from the meat. Cut the meat into 1/4 to 1/2-inch cubes.
In a large Dutch oven, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork, cook until browned, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Add the chopped garlic and duck meat, cook until duck is browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with ground spice mix, masa harina and flour. Cook, stirring, until flour is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the beer, onions, red pepper, poblanos and jalapeno. Lower the heat to medium, add the chicken stock and chopped canned green chiles.
Crumble the tortillas or corn chips into a blender. Ladle out enough of the chili liquid to cover the tortillas in the blender. Blend until smooth. Add back to chili. Simmer until duck is tender, about 1 hour. Season, to taste, with salt. Keep on simmer until serving.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Serve, garnished with scallions and sour cream.

Jan's Special Spice Mix:

Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add cumin and coriander, cook until spices are fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a spice grinder, grind to a powder and transfer to a small bowl. Stir in remaining spices.
