I'm giving this recipe 5 stars because the duck was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. However, I would recommend using a little less honey in the sauce.

This recipe was easy to follow and the duck turned out great. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but that's easily remedied with a little less honey.
