Thread: Hoisin-spiced duck breast - Simple

Ingredients:

• 2x duck breasts
• 4 Tablespoons - Lee Kum Kee hoisin sauce
• 1 Teaspoon - Chinese five-spice (Star anise, cloves, cinnamon, Sichuan pepper and ground fennel seeds.)

Method:

1. Score the duck skin diagonally (being careful not to score the breast).

2. Mix hoisin sauce and Chinese five-spice together in a bowl and brush breasts liberally with it (basting brush is good for this), allow to marinate for 20 minutes.

3. Pat excess marinade off breasts. Heat a cast iron pan to low and place breasts skin side down until the skin turns crisp, sear remaining sides.

4. Once all sides are seared/sealed cover in tinfoil and place in the oven 180 degrees for 5 minutes, allow to rest for a further 5 minutes.




Marinade works well for pork ribs too.
