Duck

Port Wine Cream Sauce

Method

Duck Preparation

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Prepare the Duck

Remove the giblets from the duck cavity and pat the duck dry with paper towels. Season the duck inside and out with salt and black pepper.

3

Add Aromatics

Stuff the duck cavity with garlic cloves and fresh thyme to enhance flavor.

4

Rub with Olive Oil

Rub the outside of the duck with olive oil to help achieve a golden-brown skin.

5

Roast the Duck

Place the duck breast-side up on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Roast for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Port Wine Cream Sauce Preparation

6

Sauté Shallots

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and add finely chopped shallots. Sauté until they are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

7

Add Port Wine

Pour the port wine into the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing it to reduce by half.

8

Stir in Cream

Slowly stir in the heavy cream and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly.

9

Season the Sauce

Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
