Roast duck breast with a maple glaze, built for a hungry table after a long day out.
Prep 16 min · Cook 67 min
Brine or season the duck breast well ahead and pat the skin completely dry for a crisp finish.
Heat the oven and a heavy pan, then sear the skin side hard to render the fat and set the color.
Move it to the oven and roast to a just-pink, juicy center, basting once or twice along the way.
Tent and rest so the juices settle back through the meat before carving.
Carve and serve with a maple glaze, spooning any pan juices over the top.
