Ingredients

scaled from 4 servings
  • 2 (12 oz each) duck breasts
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1 minced shallot
  • 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp coarse salt

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Score the duck skin in a crosshatch and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Place the breasts skin-side down in a cold pan and cook over medium heat for 8 minutes to render the fat until crisp.
  3. Flip and cook 4 to 5 minutes more for medium-rare, then rest on a board.
  4. Pour off most of the fat, soften the shallot, then add the honey, vinegar, and stock and reduce to a glaze, finishing with butter.
  5. Slice the duck against the grain and spoon over the honey sauce.
