I've given this retro duck dish a makeover and simplified it as much as possible. Using the zest and juice of fresh oranges and adding no extra sweetness this simple one-pot has a lovely freshness.
The recipe
Duck a L'Orange
- Serves 4
Ingredients
Method
Pan fry the seasoned duck. Start it in a cold pan with no oil turning it up to a high heat for approximately 5 minutes or until golden.
Turn the duck over to colour the other side.
Drain the excess oil. Remove the duck from the pan and set aside.
Now add the onions until translucent.
Add the garlic for 2 minutes and season. Pour in the orange juice and zest and bring to a simmer.
Return the duck to the pan skin side up, place the lid on and cook in an oven of 150 degrees for 1 1/2 hours.
