Share:
Ingredients
- 2, 1 lb. duck breasts
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 cup red wine dry
- 1 cup chicken stock
- orange juice juice of 1 orange
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- Score duck fat, making a grid shape along the fat, taking care to not cut through to the duck meat. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Place duck, fat side down, in cold pan. Pan must absolutely be cold - do not preheat.
- Let fat reduce and crisp on medium-high heat, about 15-18 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
- Flip duck breast and cook through to medium rare, another 4-5 minutes.
- Rest duck for at least 10 minutes, skin side up. Drain fat, but do not discard - save for frying potatoes later!
- While duck is resting, combine wine, stock, juice from 1 orange, and honey in pan, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a boil, then reduce, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced, about 5 minutes.
- Slice duck in thin slices and top with orange sauce.
- Serve and enjoy!
