I made a quail recipe similar to this-but tonight I had a duck. We served this over rice with stir-fried vegetables.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Cut the duck in half, through the backbone and breast, using kitchen sissors.
  2. 2
    Mix the remaining ingredients together and marinate the duck for at least 2 hours.
  3. 3
    Strain and reserve the marinade.
  4. 4
    Pre-heat your oven to 170c and cook the duck for 1 1/2 hours.
  5. 5
    Increase the oven temperature to 200c for a further 10 minutes or until the duck skin is crisp and brown.
  6. 6
    Place the marinade in a small saucepan bring to the boil and cook over a high heat for about 10 minutes or until reduced by half.
  7. 7
    Remove the duck and allow to rest for about 10 minutes before cutting the halves in half.
  8. 8
    Serve with a little of the reduced marinade poured over.

    Oh my gosh, this was soooo good. I couldn't find any pomegranate molasses, so used plain old fancy molasses and since I was only cooking for two, I used duck breasts and marinated them for about 4 1/2 hours. While reducing the marinade, I added about 1/2 tsp of honey and 2 tsp of soy sauce. Thanks for this great recipe!

    i made this using 2 duck breasts and cooked for30 minutes at 400f in the oven (your directions for another duck breast recipe). i used plum jam as that was what i had on hande. this was simply delicious with your pan fried asparagus, and would certainly be a great meal for guests. 10 stars!

    great recipe, really really tasty. Made it for mother's day and it was a hit. I also recommend "painting" the reduced sauce onto the duck at the very end of the roast so it glazes. One thing to note for anyone making it - temp is in celcius! Conversion is about 350 for the main roast and 390 to crisp the skin at the end.
