Providence Farm Duck Breast Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Spice Crust

   In a bowl, mix together paprika, cumin, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

2. 2

   Prepare the Duck Breasts

   Score the skin of the duck breasts in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. Rub the spice mixture all over the duck breasts, ensuring it gets into the scored skin.

3. 3

   Cook the Duck Breasts

   Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. 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 the breasts and cook for another 4-6 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let rest.

4. 4

   Prepare the Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add the diced turnips and butternut squash. Sauté for about 10-12 minutes until tender and caramelized. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Make the Coffee Jus

   In a small saucepan, add the brewed coffee and simmer on low heat until reduced by half. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Slice the duck breasts and serve over the sautéed turnips and butternut squash, drizzled with the coffee jus.
