Fried Duck Or Goose Breast Recipes

PAN FRIED DUCK BREAST

Steps:

• Score each duck breast's skin with a sharp knife, ensuring not to cut into the meat.
• Season generously with salt and leave the duck breasts to stand for 15 minutes. Pat both sides dry with a paper towel.
• Place the duck breasts skin side down in a cold frying pan and switch on the heat to a medium-high setting.
• Wait. Leave the duck undisturbed for around 3-5 minutes (depending on size of breasts) and watch as the fat melts, which lubricates the meat. Using a spatula or tongs, you can press down on the meat side to ensure the skin is evenly cooked.
• Flip the breasts over and cook for 3-4 minutes, all depending on how well you like your duck cooked.
• We advise medium-rare pink. If the duck is thicker on one side, tip the breasts onto the thick sides and allow to cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
• Remove from the pan and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Serve with your choice of vegetables and accompanying sauce. I suggest dauphinoise potatoes, steamed broccoli and orange sauce. Enjoy!

GOOSE OR DUCK FINGER STEAKS

• Marinate in batter 20 minutes to 1 hour.
• Deep fat fry a few pieces at a time so that they won't stick together, until browned and floating.
