Duck Breast

Agnolotti Filling

Agnolotti Dough

Roasted Vegetables

Persimmon Marmalade

Method

Prepare the Duck Breast

  1. 1

    Score the Skin

    Using a sharp knife, score the skin of the duck breasts in a crisscross pattern without cutting into the meat.

  2. 2

    Season and Cook

    Season the duck breasts with salt and pepper. Place them skin-side down in a cold skillet over medium heat. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Glaze with maple syrup and cook for an additional minute. Remove from heat and let rest.

Make the Agnolotti Dough

  1. 3

    Prepare the Dough

    In a bowl, combine flour and make a well in the center. Add eggs and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms. Knead for about 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic and let rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling

  1. 4

    Mix the Filling

    In a bowl, mix ricotta, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Assemble the Agnolotti

  1. 5

    Roll and Cut

    Roll out the dough to a thin sheet. Cut into squares, fill with ricotta mixture, and fold over to seal edges.

  2. 6

    Cook the Agnolotti

    Boil in salted water for 3-4 minutes until they float. Drain and set aside.

Roast the Vegetables

  1. 7

    Prepare and Roast

    Chop carrots, zucchini, and bell pepper. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until tender.

Make the Persimmon Marmalade

  1. 8

    Cook the Marmalade

    Peel and chop persimmons. In a saucepan, combine persimmons, sugar, water, and lemon juice. Simmer on low heat for about 30 minutes until thickened.

Plate and Serve

  1. 9

    Assemble the Dish

    Slice duck breast and arrange on a plate with agnolotti and roasted vegetables. Top with persimmon marmalade and serve.
