Duck Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Prepare the Duck
Score the skin of the duck breasts in a crosshatch pattern, taking care not to cut into the meat. This helps render the fat.
Seasoning
Season both sides of the duck breasts with salt and black pepper.
Sear the Duck
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Place the duck breasts skin-side down and cook for about 6-8 minutes, until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
Baste
Spoon the rendered fat over the duck breasts while they cook.
Add Broth
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Serve
Slice the duck breasts and serve with the pan sauce drizzled over the top.
