Confit Duck Leg with Roasted Root Vegetables
Slow-roasted duck legs prepared confit-style until the skin is shatteringly crisp, served alongside a medley of tender, caramelized root vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 small duck legs
1 tsp sea salt
0.5 tsp black pepper
2 sprig fresh thyme
2 clove garlic
1 medium carrot
1 medium parsnip
0.25 tsp duck fat
0.25 tsp dried rosemary
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 300°F and season the duck legs thoroughly on all sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Place the duck legs in a small, heavy-bottomed baking dish, skin-side up, tucked in with the fresh thyme sprigs and smashed garlic cloves.
Cover the dish tightly with foil and roast for 2 hours, allowing the duck to slow-cook in its own rendered fat until the meat is tender.
While the duck roasts, peel and slice the carrot and parsnip into even batons, then toss them with duck fat and dried rosemary.
Remove the duck from the oven, uncover the dish, and increase the oven temperature to 400°F.
Arrange the vegetables around the duck legs in the same pan and roast for another 25 minutes until the duck skin is shatteringly crisp and the vegetables are caramelized.
