Ingredients
Preparation steps
Step 1 and 2
Preheat the oven to 150°C (approximately 300°F). Rinse the duck breasts and pat dry with paper towel.
Step 3
Remove any remaining feathers with tweezers.
Step 4
Score the skin in a crosshatch pattern, making sure to not cut into the meat.
Step 5
Heat a skillet (preferrably not non-stick). Place the duck breasts in the skillet, skin side down. Sear until golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes.
Step 6
Turn the duck breasts and cook on the other side for 1-2 minutes. Baste with the residual duck fat.
Step 7 and 8
Turn the duck breasts again and cover with foil.
Step 9
Cook the duck breasts in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and remove the aluminum foil.
Step 9, 10 and 11
Season the duck with salt and pepper to taste. Thinly slice and serve.
