Duck

Duck Espagnole

Spiced Orange Sauce

Method

Roasting the Duck

  1. 1

    Prepare the Duck

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse the duck half under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Score the skin in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.

  2. 2

    Season and Roast

    Rub the duck with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan and roast for 1.5 hours, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Making Duck Espagnole

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large saucepan, combine duck bones, carrot, celery, onion, and tomato paste. Add red wine and bring to a simmer.

  2. 4

    Simmer

    Add thyme, bay leaf, and water. Simmer for 2 hours, skimming any foam that rises to the surface.

  3. 5

    Strain

    Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding solids. Return the sauce to the pan and reduce over medium heat until thickened.

Making Spiced Orange Sauce

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan, combine fresh orange juice, orange zest, cinnamon stick, honey, grated ginger, and salt.

  2. 7

    Simmer

    Simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly thickened. Remove the cinnamon stick.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Slice the roasted duck and serve with Duck Espagnole and Spiced Orange Sauce drizzled on top.
