Description
I love duck any way you make it and easy is the best way when I am in a rush, especially when I am making a duck breast just for little me. I have created a simple recipe that is duck breast easy stove top style and anyone can make this. Seriously, it is that easy.
Ingredients
- Per 1 medium-sized full duck breast half
- 1 tablespoon ghee or grass-fed butter (coconut oil is okay)
- 1 clove garlic (crushed)
- 1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and additional pepper to taste
- 1 medium sized shallot
- 2 tablespoons sweet red wine of choice (I used Marsala)
- Note: increase the below ingredients according to how many duck breasts you choose to cook.
Instructions
- Cut duck breast(s) into large thin slices, about ¾ inch thick.
- Heat fat of choice in skillet over medium heat.
- Coat duck with garlic, pepper, onion powder and salt.
- Slice shallot.
- Sauté shallot over medium heat until opaque.
- Add duck, pushing shallots to side a bit.
- Sear duck on each side over medium heat to desired tenderness.
- Add red wine to skillet and stir together.
- Blend all ingredients to incorporate the flavors.
- Cook until done to desired temperature. (I like mine medium-well and this takes around 12 minutes.)
- Remove duck and sauce and place on platter.
- Enjoy!
Notes
I like to serve with a starch such as a paleo sweet potato mash or a turnip mash.
