Orange Glazed Duck Breast is a sophisticated dish that combines the rich, tender flavor of duck meat with a fresh, tangy orange syrup. The sweetness of the orange perfectly complements the duck, making this dish a truly delectable experience. The crispy skin and tender meat of the duck breast harmonize beautifully with the citrusy sauce, offering a special pleasure with every bite.
Making orange glazed duck breast is a true art, as the duck is cooked until the skin reaches perfect crispiness, and then the orange is thickened with a little honey and spices to create a rich, mouthwatering sauce. This dish is an ideal choice for festive occasions or when you crave something truly special.
Season the duck breasts with salt and pepper, then rub with olive oil.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and sear the duck breasts, skin-side down, for 6-8 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.
Transfer the duck breasts to a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
Prepare the orange sauce: squeeze the juice from the oranges, combine it with the honey, and simmer in a small saucepan until slightly thickened.
Before serving, drizzle the orange sauce over the duck breasts and garnish with fresh rosemary.
