Crispy Pan-Seared Duck Breast with Herb-Roasted Root Vegetables
Enjoy a beautifully balanced plate featuring a succulent, crispy-skinned duck breast paired with a medley of herb-roasted root vegetables. The dish is finished with a fragrant mix of rosemary and thyme, creating an enticing blend of savory and subtly sweet flavors that enliven the palate.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Duck Breast (with skin)
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1/2 Red Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Score the skin of the duck breast in a crisscross pattern and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the duck breast skin-side down without additional oil to render the fat. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Flip the duck breast and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer to your preferred doneness. Remove the duck from the skillet and let it rest.
While the duck rests, preheat the oven to 425°F. Chop the carrot, parsnip, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.
In a mixing bowl, toss the chopped vegetables and garlic with olive oil, fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
Slice the rested duck breast and serve alongside the herb-roasted root vegetables.
