How to Cook Duck Breasts

Method

1. Heat frypan to a medium heat, and preheat oven 190 c.
2. Score the skin of the breast with a sharp knife.
3. Lightly season the duck breasts with a little salt and freshly ground pepper.
4. When the pan is moderately hot, place the breasts skin side down using no oil and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the skin is golden brown.
5. Turn over and cook for another minute and then place into preheated oven for 8 minutes.
