Skewers of duck fillet stuffed with mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, and shallots are a refined dish of Italian cuisine. This recipe is inspired by Mediterranean traditions where grilling is a primary cooking method. The duck fillet infused with basil and Italian dressing becomes incredibly juicy, while the melted mozzarella inside the rolls provides a pleasant creamy texture. Shallots add a light sweetness, balancing the flavor profile. These skewers are perfect for summer evenings outdoors or cozy dinners with a glass of white wine.
