Duck Preparation

Berry Confit Sauce

Method

Duck Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Duck

    Pat the duck breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Duck

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the duck breasts skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy. Flip the duck breasts and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let them rest.

Berry Confit Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Berry Mixture

    In a medium saucepan, combine the mixed berries, sugar, red wine, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently to combine.

  2. 4

    Cook the Sauce

    Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Allow it to cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries have broken down and the sauce thickens slightly.

  3. 5

    Add Thyme

    Stir in the fresh thyme and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Plating

  1. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the rested duck breasts thinly and arrange them on a plate. Spoon the berry confit sauce over the duck and serve immediately.
