Crispy Pan-Seared Duck Breast with Cherry Sauce
Savor the succulent flavors of pan-seared duck breast paired with a vibrant cherry sauce. The lightly crispy exteriors of the duck meet the tangy-sweet burst of cherries, enhanced with a hint of balsamic and aromatic shallots, creating an elegant dish perfect for a refined dinner experience.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Duck Breast (Skinless)
1/2 cup Fresh Cherries (pitted)
1 small Shallot
1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the duck breast dry and lightly season with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the duck breast skin-side down (if skin is still present, otherwise presentation remains similar) and sear until it develops a crisp exterior, about 4-5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until desired doneness is achieved.
Remove the duck from the pan and let it rest while preparing the sauce.
In the same skillet, add the shallot and sauté until softened, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the pitted cherries, balsamic vinegar, low-sodium chicken broth, and olive oil. Toss in the thyme sprigs. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes until the cherries soften slightly and the sauce thickens a bit.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Slice the rested duck breast and drizzle the warm cherry sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious blend of savory duck and sweet-tart cherry sauce.
