We love duck in my family and this is just another quick recipe to make with duck. I served ours over stir-fried vegetables with noddles, it would also be good over rice as well. I have listed it below just for 2 as that is what I served it for, but the sauce amount would probably stretch to 3 or 4 depending on what it was served with and how much sauce you prefer.
Ingredients
2 Duck Breasts
100ml Hoisin sauce
100ml Water
1/4 Teaspoon five spice
2 Star anise
2 Tablespoon honey
2 Tablespoons ketjap manis (sweet soy sauce)
1/2 Teaspoon chili flakes
11/2 Tablespoons chinese rice wine (I use Shao Xing)
1 Tablespoon sweet chili sauce
Method
1. Cook duck breast skin side down in a pan to render fat and crisp up skin, drain carefully from time to time. Cook about 8-10 Min’s.
2. Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius, place duck, breast side down, on wire rack in a baking dish. Cook for about 20-25 Min’s further in oven depending on size of breasts. (This will give you a pink center.)
Note: I turn the grill on for the last few Min’s of cooking to really crisp up the skin.
3. While duck is cooking make sauce. Blend all sauce ingredients in a pan and heat until hot.
Serve duck over vegetables and noodles as I did or with rice, drizzle with sauce.

This is another quick and easy recipe to make with a great end result, it makes for a great mid week meal and is a no fuss meal being as it can all be cooked in one skillet. I served ours over mash with bacon wrapped asparagus. You can make the sauce as is or thicken with cornflour as I did just our personal preference as we prefer a thicker sauce.
