Steps:

• Season duck breasts with salt, heavily on the skin side and lightly on the flesh side.
• Increase heat to medium and further brown skin if needed, about 1 minute, before flipping and cooking on the flesh side. For medium-rare meat, cook until breast registers 130°F (54°C) on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 to 2 minutes. Continue cooking until duck registers 140°F (60°C) for medium or 155°F (68°F) for well-done. Remove duck from pan and set aside to rest.

SEARED ORANGE DUCK BREAST

Steps:

• Combine duck, rind, salt, pepper and garlic in a covered dish and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Combine the orange juice, sake, tamari and honey in a small sauce pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid in reduced to 2/3.
• Heat oil in an oven-safe skillet. Add duck and sear each side - the time you should leave it on each side depends on the thickness of the duck and your preference for the doneness.
• Drizzle the duck with a few tablespoons of the sauce. Bake for 5 - 10 minutes, again depending on the thickness of the duck breast and your preference for the doneness.
• Remove duck from the pan, slice into strips and top with the sauce. Serve with rice and a healthy, steamed veggie.
• Additional notes: The picture is from my first attempt at this recipe, which admittedly is a hack from a CookingLight recipe. The duck was cooked more than I prefer, but it was still delicious. The sauce was thin, so you could add corn starch to thicken it, but I would rather have a thin sauce. It is very flavorful. I also drizzled it on the rice and snow peas.

SEARED DUCK WITH GINGER MASH

Steps:

• Cut 4 thin slices of the ginger and shred, then finely grate the remainder. Rub ¼ tsp each grated ginger and orange zest into the duck breasts, then grind over plenty of black pepper and set aside. Put both types of potato into a steamer and cook for 15 mins until tender. Transfer to a bowl and add the remaining grated ginger, then blitz with a hand blender until smooth. Cover and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the onion, garlic and shredded ginger and fry for 5 mins until softened and starting to turn golden. Push the onions to one side, add the duck and cook for 8 mins, turning frequently and stirring the onions occasionally. Lift the duck out of the pan and put on a plate to rest.
• Put the broccoli and sprouts into the steamer and cook for 8 mins until tender. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Add 150ml water, ½ tsp orange zest and the bouillon to the onion mixture and bubble to a sauce, then remove from the heat and add the orange juice.
• Smear the ginger mash onto two warmed plates and top with the duck. Spoon over the onions and drizzle over the sauce. Scatter with the parsley or coriander, if using, and serve with the broccoli and sprouts.
