Method

Duck Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Duck

    Generously season the duck breasts on both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Duck

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add vegetable oil. Once hot, place the duck breasts skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes to desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest.

Pickled Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Pickling Liquid

    In a bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until sugar and salt are dissolved.

  2. 4

    Pickle the Vegetables

    Add the julienned carrots, cucumbers, and sliced radishes to the pickling liquid. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours for more flavor.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 5

    Making Peanut Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, and water until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more water if needed. Stir in crushed peanuts for added texture.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Slice the Duck

    Once the duck has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.

  2. 7

    Assemble the Wraps

    On a lettuce leaf, place a few slices of duck, add pickled vegetables, and drizzle hoisin sauce and peanut sauce on top. Wrap the lettuce around the fillings to create a wrap.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your duck lettuce wraps!
