  • step 1
    ingredients 2 Magret Duck Breasts (each about 1 pound)
    Kosher Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper
    instructions For the Duck: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Score breast fat in a criss-cross pattern making sure that you do go down to the meat. In order to get the skin as crispy as possible, the pattern should create rectangles no more than 1/2-inch. Salt liberally on both sides, getting it into all the crevices on the fat side.  Do the same with the black pepper but not as liberally.
  • step 2
    ingredients  
    instructions Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add duck breasts fat side down.  Cook until the fat has been rendered, the skin is crisp and the breast has contracted and is plump, about 8 minutes.  
  • step 3
    ingredients  
    instructions Put breasts skin side up on a rack on a cookie sheet.  Roast for 17 minutes for medium rare.  Remove from oven and let rest for 8 to 10 minutes. Slice on bias and serve with Spicy Sweet and Sour Sauce.

    1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
    2 tablespoons Cornstarch (dissolved in 2 tablespoons of Water)
