Deviled Duck Hearts

Deviled Duck Hearts are small, seared hearts coated in a seasoned flour and spice mixture, cooked in duck fat until browned and coated with a savory glaze made from Worcestershire sauce, broth, and grated onion. The dish is finished with fresh parsley and is typically served alongside peppery watercress and crusty bread, providing complementary textures and flavors.

Description

This recipe dusts duck hearts with a mix of flour, salt, cayenne, and dry mustard, creating a spiced crust before sautéing them in duck fat over medium-high heat. The hearts cook quickly, rolling in the pan for even browning. Grated onion, Worcestershire sauce, and duck or chicken broth are added to the pan, combining with browned bits to form a rich glaze that coats the hearts as it reduces. The parsley is stirred in just before serving to add freshness.

The finished hearts have a tender texture with a pronounced seasoning and a slightly spicy, savory glaze. Serving them with peppery greens like watercress and crusty bread balances richness and adds textural contrast, making for a distinctive dish that highlights offal's flavor in an approachable way.
