Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup sugar 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar Zest of 1 orange (2 teaspoons), 1 cup fresh orange juice, plus 1 orange, supremed 3/4 cup chicken broth 1 shallot, minced (3 tablespoons) 2 boneless duck breast halves (8-10 ounces each) 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Place sugar in a medium saucepan and set over medium-high heat. As sugar begins to melt, use a fork to gently stir sugar from edges to center of pan. Continue stirring in this manner until sugar is a deep amber color.

Remove caramel from heat and carefully stir in vinegar, orange zest and juice, chicken broth, and shallot. Return to medium-high heat and boil, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 2/3 cup, 20 to 25 minutes.

Score fat of duck breasts with the tip of a knife in a crosshatch pattern to form 1-inch diamonds. Season both sides of breasts with salt and pepper. Place breasts, fat side down, in a medium skillet and place over medium-high heat. Cook undisturbed until skin is crisp and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip and continue cooking to desired doneness, about 8 minutes more for medium-rare (125 degrees). Allow meat to rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Add orange supremes to sauce and pour over sliced duck just before serving.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/15/2015   It would be nice if, in the video related to this recipe, Lucinda would come back and finish cooking the duck breasts. I waited through several "how to" videos for that to happen but it never did.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/17/2013   I made this today. I used a mix of red wine vinegar and balsamic as I did not have sherry vinegar and I used an onion instead of shallot. My wife loved it. So did I. Easy recipe and very delicious. Thank you!
