Скачать или смотреть Crispy Duck Breast with Sour Cherry Sauce

A long time ago I was taught a technique to cook crispy duck breast perfectly from an amazing chef that I worked with. I share with you the technique on how to do it and pair it with a rockin sour cherry sauce. Your going to love it! Enjoy guys!

Ingredients:

1 Large Duck Breast/ or 2 Smaller Ones
1 Oz. Chopped Garlic
1 Oz. Chopped Red Onion
Chopped Fresh Thyme
15 Fresh Cherries Chopped
1 Oz. Olive Oil
1 Oz. Balsamic Vinegar
3 Oz. Raspberry Vinegar
8 Oz. Chicken Broth
2 Tbsp. Honey

Procedure:

1. Heat the oil in a medium sauce pan over medium heat and add the garlic and onion. Cook for 1 minute. Add the cherries and fresh thyme and cook an additional minute.
2. Add the 2 vinegar's and reduce till most of the liquid has been cooked off. Add the broth and the honey and reduce till the sauce becomes somewhat thick. Be sure to season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
3. Air dry the duck breast on a plate in the refrigerator overnight to allow it to dry and have some of the moisture evaporate from the fat.
4. Score the skin side of the duck breast.
5. Using a cast iron skillet, add about 2 Oz. water and place the duck breast skin side down. Raise the flame to high and bring the water to a boil. Allow the water to evaporate. Remove the breast and drain the rendered oil. Repeat this process 2 more times.
6. Flip the breast over and cook until desired temperature. I like mine medium rare and it takes about 5 minutes. Allow the breast to rest for 5 minutes before slicing with the amazing sour cherry sauce.
