Duck Breast à l’Orange
Also needed
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) butter
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
- Using a knife, score the skin of the duck breasts in a crisscross pattern, taking care not to cut into the meat. Salt and pepper the duck breasts.
- In a large ovenproof skillet, sear the breasts, skin side down, for 2 to 3 minutes over medium-high heat. Turn the breasts over and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
- Turn the breasts over again and brush with 30 ml (2 tbsp) of marmalade.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 7 to 8 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and transfer the breasts to a cutting board. Cover with foil and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter over medium heat in a small saucepan. Sprinkle with flour and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in the rest of the marmalade, the citrus liqueur and the chicken broth while whisking. Bring to a boil. Add salt and pepper. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes, until thickened.
- Slice the breasts and serve with the sauce.
