INGREDIENTS
6 oz Duck Breast
1/2 medium Sweet Potato
5 Asparagus Spears
2 Tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, minced
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the duck breast dry with paper towels. Score the skin gently in a crisscross pattern and season generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the duck breast skin-side down and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and sear the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
Transfer the duck breast to a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes for medium-rare doneness (adjust time as needed based on thickness).
While the duck is roasting, preheat a separate baking sheet and toss the sweet potato (cut into cubes) with a bit of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil if desired. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until tender.
Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender, then immediately plunge into ice water to retain color and texture.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh orange juice, honey, and minced ginger. Bring to a slight simmer, stirring until the glaze thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Once the duck is finished roasting, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Plate the sliced duck breast alongside the roasted sweet potato cubes and asparagus spears. Drizzle the orange glaze over the duck and serve immediately.
