This is a great marinade for duck I absolutely loved all the flavours combined and it infuses with the duck so well. I boiled the left over marinade added a little extra hoisin sauce and served as a dipping sauce on the side which was gorgeous. I just served over stir-fried vegetables which for us trying to lighten up on carbs was perfect but it would also pair well with egg fried rice.

Ingredients

4 Large duck breasts
100ml Light soy sauce
100 ml Hoisin sauce (I use Blue Dragon brand.)
50ml Oyster sauce
50ml Honey
50ml Rice wine vinegar
3 Teaspoons five-spice powder

Note: As stated above I boiled the left over marinade, added a little extra hoisin sauce and served as a dipping sauce on the side it was gorgeous.

Method

1. Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl, trim the duck breasts and add to the bowl. Marinate over night.

2. Sear the duck breasts in a hot non-stick pan over high heat (taking care not to burn the marinade).

3. Place the duck breasts in a baking dish and roast in a pre-heated oven at 205c or until medium rare (about 8 minutes).

4. Allow the duck to stand 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
