Instructions
Crock Pot Goose
In the Crock Pot, whisk together the chicken broth, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, and thyme.
Place the goose legs and thighs in the Crock Pot. Cover and cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours or on High for 5 to 6 hours, until the meat easily shreds with tongs or a fork. Discard the bones.
Fettuccine Alfredo
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season the water with a pinch of salt.
While waiting for the water to boil, heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and broccoli, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook the broccoli uncovered for about 3 minutes until bright green. Add in 2 Tablespoons water and cook uncovered for about 3 more minutes until the water has evaporated. Transfer the cooked broccoli to a small bowl.
Add the fettuccine to the pot of boiling water and cook according to package instructions.
In the same skillet you cooked the broccoli, add the butter and onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until soft. Add the garlic and sauté another 1 minute.
Add the heavy cream and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add the grated Parmesan, nutmeg, and black pepper and cook until the cheese is melted and just starting to bubble. Turn the heat to low.
When the pasta is done cooking, reserve ½ cup of the pasta cooking water. Drain the pasta from the water, then add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the alfredo sauce and toss to coat the noodles. Add in the broccoli and 1 ½ cups of the cooked & shredded goose meat, then toss to combine. If necessary, add in a little pasta water to thin the sauce to desired consistency. Garnish with parsley and more grated Parmesan and serve immediately.
