Suya Spiced Smoked Duck Fried Rice on the Weber Slate Griddle

There’s something incrediblyI satisfying about transforming leftover smoked duck into a bold, flavorful fried rice. This recipe begins with a Suya-spiced smoked duck—rich, smoky, and slightly spicy—paired with perfectly charred fried rice cooked on a Weber Slate griddle. The result? A dish that’s packed with depth, texture, and just the right amount of heat.  

 Why This Recipe Works  

 Smoked duck adds depth – The natural smokiness from the duck pairs perfectly with the nutty, slightly crispy fried rice.  

 Suya spice brings heat and complexity – A blend of ground peanuts, chili, and warming spices gives the duck a West African-inspired kick.  

 Griddle cooking = maximum flavor – The Weber Slate griddle ensures even heat distribution, giving the rice that signature wok hei (breath of the wok) flavor without the need for a traditional wok.  

  

 Suya Spiced Smoked Duck Fried Rice  

Serves: 4-6  

Prep Time: 15 mins  

Cook Time: 20 mins  

 Ingredients:  

 1 ½ cups cooked smoked duck, shredded or cubed (leftover suya-spiced duck works great!)  

 3 cups cooked jasmine rice (day-old works best)  

 2 eggs, beaten  

 1 shallot, finely diced  

 2 tbsp fried garlic (Fried garlic recipe here)  

 1 cup canned corn

 ½ cup frozen peas & carrots (optional)  

 2 scallions, sliced (whites and greens separated)  

 4 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce   

 1 tsp sesame oil  

 2 tbsp garlic oil  

 1 tsp suya spice (or more to taste)  

 Salt & pepper to taste  

 Lime wedges & cilantro (for garnish)  

 Instructions:  

 1. Prep the Duck & Rice  

 If using leftover smoked duck, pull the meat off the carcass and cut into bite-sized pieces. Toss with a sprinkle of suya spice for extra heat.  

 Use day-old rice for best results—it fries better and doesn’t clump.  

 2. Heat the Griddle  

 Preheat your Weber Slate griddle over medium-high heat until smoking hot.  

 Add garlic oil and swirl to coat.  

 3. Scramble the Eggs  

 Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble quickly. Once just set, remove and set aside.  

 4. Sauté Aromatics  

 Add the onion, garlic, ginger, and scallion whites, stirring until fragrant (about 1 min).  

 Toss in the peas & carrots and cook for another minute.  

 5. Fry the Rice  

 Add the rice, breaking up any clumps. Spread it out and let it sit for 30 seconds to develop a slight crust.  

 Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice, tossing well to combine.  

 6. Add the Duck & Eggs  

 Fold in the duck and scrambled eggs, stirring until everything is heated through.  

 Sprinkle with suya spice, scallion greens, salt, and pepper to taste.  

 7. Serve & Enjoy!  

 Plate the fried rice and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.  

 For extra heat, serve with extra suya spice or chili oil.
