Crispy Duck Confit with Roasted Root Vegetables
Slow-roasted duck legs seared until the skin is shatteringly crisp, served alongside earthy root vegetables caramelized to perfection in aromatic duck fat.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 whole Duck legs (confit)
1 cup Carrots
0.5 cup Parsnips
1 tsp Fresh thyme
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Garlic
1 tsp Balsamic vinegar
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the duck legs skin-side down in a cold cast-iron skillet.
Turn the heat to medium-low and cook for 8-10 minutes to render the fat and achieve a golden, crispy skin.
Remove the duck and toss the sliced carrots and parsnips in the rendered duck fat remaining in the skillet.
Season the vegetables with the sea salt and black pepper.
Arrange the duck legs skin-side up and the vegetables on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Roast for 15-20 minutes until the root vegetables are tender and caramelized.
Toss the vegetables with minced garlic and fresh thyme in the final 2 minutes of roasting.
Finish with a light drizzle of balsamic vinegar for a touch of balanced acidity before serving.
