Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless duck breasts, skin on (about 12 to 14 ounces each)
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon minced shallots
2 1/2 tablespoons good sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/2 cup good olive oil
3 heads Belgian endive
3 ounces mache or other delicate baby lettuce
Navel oranges, peeled, cut in 1/2, and sliced
1/2 pint fresh raspberries
1 cup toasted whole pecan halves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the duck breasts on a sheet pan, skin side up. Sprinkle with salt and roast for about 20 minutes, until medium-rare. Remove from the oven, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove and discard the fat and skin on top (unless you're making cracklings), slice the duck, and then cut the slices crosswise into julienned pieces.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the shallots, sherry vinegar, orange zest, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Whisk in the olive oil and set aside.
  • For the salad, trim the bottom half-inch from the endive and cut them diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. Separate the leaves and discard the cores. Place the slices in a large salad bowl. Add the mache leaves, oranges, raspberries, and toasted pecans. Toss with enough dressing to moisten. Gently toss in the warm duck meat and serve immediately.

WARM DUCK SALAD WITH CARAMELIZED BEETS



Warm Duck Salad with Caramelized Beets image

You may think that tangy oranges are the best partner for rich duck breast-until you try beets, that is. They're caramelized here for sweetness, then tossed with grapefruit segments (the citrus with a sharper bite). Complete the update with a bright, herby sauce that comes together right on your cutting board.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound red beets (about 2 medium)
1 pound golden beets (about 2 medium)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 medium grapefruits, such as ruby red and oroblanco
1 pomelo
1 very small clove garlic
1 cup packed fresh parsley leaves, mint leaves, or a combination
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, toasted
2 boneless duck breast halves (1 1/4 pounds total), patted dry
1/2 cup mixed purple microgreens, such as radish, red shiso, and amaranth, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Peel beets and slice into 3/4-inch-thick wedges. Toss with oil; season with salt and pepper. Place beets on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment; cover baking sheet with parchment-lined foil. Roast until beets are tender and golden brown on one side, 40 to 45 minutes. Uncover, flip, and continue to roast until golden brown on second side, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, using a sharp knife, remove peels and white pith from grapefruits and pomelo. Working over a small bowl to catch juices, carefully cut between membranes to remove segments. Squeeze juice from membranes into bowl.
  • Using the flat side of a heavy knife, finely mash garlic with 1/4 teaspoon salt on a large cutting board to make a paste. Chop parsley and coriander seeds and combine with garlic mixture on cutting board; season with pepper.
  • Using a sharp knife, score duck breasts, cutting through fat but not flesh, at 1/2-inch intervals to create a crosshatch pattern. Season both sides with salt and pepper and let stand 10 minutes. Place duck breasts in a cold, ovenproof nonstick skillet, skin-side down. Cook over medium heat until skin is golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.
  • Flip duck breasts, spoon off fat (reserve for another use; see cook's note) and transfer to oven, skin-side up. Roast until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of duck registers 135°F, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to herb mixture on cutting board; let stand.
  • Toss beets, grapefruits, and pomelo with 2 tablespoons reserved citrus juice and a drizzle of oil; season with salt and pepper. Slice duck on top of herbs, allowing drippings to mingle with them to create a sauce. Transfer beet-grapefruit salad and duck to a platter; spoon herb sauce over top, sprinkle with microgreens, and serve.

WARM CAN'T BEET THAT SALAD



Warm Can't Beet That Salad image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds small or baby beets
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 rounded teaspoon prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
A handful fresh parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Place the beets in a saucepan with water, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and cook until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the beets, peel, and halve or quarter.
  • Place the sugar in a skillet and add a little water so that it looks like wet sand. Bring to a boil, and then simmer to evaporate the water out. When the sugar begins to color, remove it from the heat so that the sugar will not spatter and gently whisk in the vinegar. Return to the heat and thicken to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the stove and stir in the horseradish. Whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss the beets with the sauce and the parsley and serve.

WARM BOK CHOY, BEET AND FETA SALAD



Warm Bok Choy, Beet and Feta Salad image

Straying from bok choy's usual Asian flair, this lovely bright pink salad has a rich feta flavor with a fresh clean finish. The bok choy provides a nice crunch while the beets keep the tones earthy, with the feta and garlic to sharpen the flavor.

Time 1h5m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 small beets, trimmed, leaving 1 inch of stems attached
4 cloves garlic, chopped, divided
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 heads baby bok choy, chopped
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 ½ teaspoons butter
⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place the beets, 1/4 of the chopped garlic, and the olive oil on a piece of heavy aluminum foil; fold the foil around the beets into a sealed packet.
  • Roast beets in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a fork, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Let beets cool just until they can be handled, then rub with a paper towel to remove skins. Chop into 1/2-inch cubes; set aside.
  • Heat the peanut oil and butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir bok choy and the remaining garlic together until bok choy is slightly softened but still crunchy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in the beets and the feta. Serve warm.

  • Boil the beans for 7-8 mins, drain, then peel away the thick skin to reveal the bright green inside. Arrange the chicory and watercress in large shallow bowls with the beetroot and beans. Shred the duck and pile onto the salad with the potatoes. Drizzle with the dressing.

Tips for Making Warm Duck Salad with Caramelized Beets:
