Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 to 2 pounds packaged duck breast -- ask at your meat counter -- if the market does not carry duck breast year round, it can usually be ordered for you
1 sack mixed baby greens
1 head frissee greens -- look for very lightly colored frissee
3 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle
1 shallot, finely chopped
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar, eyeball it
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil -- eyeball it
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Score fat and skin on duck breasts. Place duck breast skin side down in a large cold skillet with a heat safe handle. Put skillet on stove and turn burner on to moderate heat. Cook breasts 5 to 8 minutes, turning once the skin crisps and most of the fat is rendered. Place the skillet in the oven and cook another 9 to 12 minutes. Meat should be pink at center.
  • Arrange greens on individual plates or 1 large platter. Arrange frissee and scallions on bed of baby greens.
  • Combine shallots, vinegar and marmalade. Let stand 10 minutes. Whisk in extra-virgin olive oil.
  • Slice duck breast and serve 6 to 8 ounces per person, arranging the sliced duck on the salad. Grilled or sauteed chicken or pork is delicious with this dressing as well. Pour dressing evenly over duck and salad.

Overall, I thought this salad was pretty good. The duck was cooked well and the vinaigrette was tasty. However, I think it could have used a bit more flavor. Maybe some fresh herbs or a spicy sauce would have helped.

I had some trouble getting the duck skin crispy. I think I needed to cook it at a higher temperature.

This salad was a bit too bitter for my taste. I think I would have preferred a sweeter vinaigrette.
