Crispy Duck Leg with Lemon-Herb Roasted Asparagus
Savor the rich, crispy duck leg paired with bright, lemon-herb roasted asparagus. This dish offers a perfect balance of succulent protein and vibrant, tangy green vegetables that brighten up your plate with contrasts of crispy skin and tender asparagus tips.
INGREDIENTS
1 piece (200g) Duck Leg (roasted)
1 cup (134g) Asparagus
1/2 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Score the duck leg skin in a crisscross pattern and season generously with salt and pepper.
Place the duck leg on a lightly oiled baking sheet, skin side up, and roast in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes until the skin is crispy and the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Meanwhile, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and place them on a separate baking tray.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle the fresh thyme over them.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for the last 10-12 minutes of the duck leg’s cooking time, tossing midway for even roasting.
Once cooked, remove both the duck leg and asparagus from the oven. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the asparagus to finish.
Plate the crispy duck leg alongside the lemon-herb roasted asparagus, and serve immediately.
