Crispy Pan-Seared Duck Breast with Herb Jus
Savor this elegantly simple dish featuring a perfectly rendered, crispy-skinned duck breast accompanied by a fragrant herb jus. The rich, savory flavor of the duck is balanced by a light, aromatic sauce, making it a refined and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Duck Breast (skin-on)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup low-sodium Chicken Broth
1 Garlic Clove
1 sprig Fresh Rosemary
1 sprig Fresh Thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the duck breast dry with paper towels and score the skin lightly in a crosshatch pattern. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the duck breast skin-side down and sear until the skin is deeply crispy and browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Flip the duck breast and continue cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your preferred doneness.
Remove the duck from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Meanwhile, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and thyme to the rendered duck fat in the pan. Sauté briefly until fragrant.
Add the chicken broth to the pan, stirring to deglaze and incorporate the browned bits. Let the mixture simmer and reduce slightly to form a light herb jus.
Slice the duck breast thinly and drizzle with the herb jus before serving.
