FRENCH HONEY-LACQUERED DUCK BREAST
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cut small slits in the skin side of the duck breast. The slits should be shallow without slicing all the way through into the flesh.
- Season the duck e both sides with the salt and pepper
- Sear the duck breasts, skin side down for 3 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and flip the duck breasts over, cooking them for an additional 4 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer them to a plate and cover them with foil so they retain their warmth.
- Pour off the rendered duck fat and turn the heat up to medium.
- Deglaze the skillet with the honey and balsamic vinegar , scraping up the browned bits as the sauce cooks.
- Simmer the honey vinegar glaze for 2 to 3 minutes until it turns slightly thick. Season with just a dash of salt.
- Return the duck breasts to the pan, turning them a few times to coat them evenly with the honey glaze.
- Carve and serve them immediately, garnished with a drizzle of extra glaze and the chopped nuts if desired.

HONEY-LACQUERED DUCK WITH SOUR CHERRY SAUCE
A gorgeous, mahogany-coloured duck. The rich meat is set off by the tart cherry sauce. I would serve this with steamed or roasted broccoli. Developed for the RSC 2004 Contest.

Steps:
- Put 10-12 sage leaves into a small saucepan with 1 cup of water and bring to the boil; simmer for 7 minutes and remove from heat; remove leaves and allow to cool.
- Wash the duck out and pat dry with paper towels; season generously with salt and put on a plate in the refrigerator to air-dry for 1 hour (2 hours is even better ;-) ).
- In a small saucepan, combine sage infusion, honey, balsamic vinegar and soy sauce and bring to the boil; boil at medium-high heat for 7-8 minutes until mixture becomes slightly syrupy and is reduced to 2/3 of a cup; pour 1/3 cup+ 1 tblsp into measuring cup and keep remainder in saucepan.
- Preheat oven to 415F°.
- Put duck in roasting pan, breast-side-down and roast for ½ an hour (drain fat off, retain); turn duck breast-side-up and roast ½ an hour longer (drain fat off again, retain); brush duck with the honey glaze and continue roasting 15 minutes; after the 15 minutes, turn duck so that it is breast-side-down again and brush with more honey glaze, do this once more after 15 minutes then turn duck breast-side-up again, brush with glaze and roast for a final 15 minutes; in all, the duck will have roasted a total of 2 hours and have had 4 glazings, 1 up, 2 down, and the last one up again; remove roaster from oven and allow duck to stand for 10 minutes while you finish the sauce.
- Pour off the fat you have retained into a small container (duck fat is great for frying potatoes!) and pour any accumulated duck juices into the saucepan containing the remaining honey glaze; add the cherries and any accumulated cherry juices as well as the cinnamon and bring to a boil; boil for 7-8 minutes, or until cherry sauce has become slightly-thickened and syrupy (if you want your sauce slightly thicker, you can sprinkle 1/2-3/4 tsp of cornstarch over cherries).
- Carve duck (in our case, this just means quartering the duck), and serve with the sour cherry sauce.
- Note: I have a special double-lined roaster, with one inclined tray with a hole in it fitting over a classic pan, this allows the fat to drain off the roasting meat, drip through the hole, and gather in the pan underneath; if you do not own this type of pan, use a classic roaster but drain fat off roasting duck more often.
