Enjoy a delightful fusion of crispy, savory duck breast paired with a vibrant medley of braised kale and white cannellini beans. The dish balances rich, flavorful duck with lightly simmered greens and aromatic shallots and garlic, creating a satisfying meal that's elegant yet approachable.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Duck Breast
1 cup chopped Kale
1/2 cup Cannellini Beans
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 small Shallot
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
Pinch Red Pepper Flakes
PREPARATION
Pat the duck breast dry with paper towels. Score the skin lightly in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, place the duck breast skin-side down and sear until the skin is crispy and golden, about 5-6 minutes.
Flip the duck breast and continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (for medium-rare). Remove the duck from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the finely chopped shallot and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant and soft, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the chopped kale to the pan and cook until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cannellini beans and a splash of water if needed to help the greens braise. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the greens are tender and the beans are warmed through, plate them alongside or beneath the sliced duck breast. Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious blend of crispy duck and hearty braised greens.
