for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the green onions and
remove from the heat. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil for
frying. When the oil is hot, fry the tortillas, a couple at a time, until
golden-brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the tortillas from the oil and drain
on a paper-lined plate. Season the tortillas with salt and pepper. In a
small mixing bowl, whisk the sour cream, lemon juice and cilantro together.
Season with salt and pepper. In another small bowl, combine the avocados,
lime juice, garlic and 2 tablespoons tomatoes, together. Season the mixture
with salt and pepper. To assemble, lay one tortilla in the center of each
plate. Place 1/2 cup of the duck mixture on top of each tortilla. Top the
duck meat with the shredded lettuce, tomatoes and cheese. Top with a second
tortilla and repeat the latter procedure. Top each taco with the remaining
tortillas. Garnish the tacos with the cilantro sour cream and guacamole.
