Israeli Roast Duck (Or Chicken) image

I love this recipe and it goes very well with Latkes and applesauce for a yummy Hanukkah meal. The original recipe that I posted here is for duck but I have made this with a roaster chicken with wonderful results. From New Jewish Cooking by Elizabeth Wolf Cohen.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (5 -6 lb) ducklings
salt and pepper
1/2 orange, quartered
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
3/4 cup orange juice
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 carrot, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon flour
3/4 cup chicken stock or 3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon cider vinegar or 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon orange marmalade

Steps:

  • Rinse duck under cold water and pat dry inside and out. Remove excess fat from the bird.
  • Season bird, inside and out, with salt and pepper and prick skin with a fork several times to allow fat to escape. Place orange quarters in cavity.
  • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and 1 teaspoon salt with 4 tablespoons orange juice.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place the sliced onion and carrot into a roasting pan and place duck on a rack on top.
  • Roast duck 30 minutes then remove from oven. Pour off fat, prick skin again and baste with the orange juice mixture.
  • Continue cooking, basting it and pouring off the fat every 20 minutes until it is well browned and skin is crisp, 1 1/2 hours or until it is done.
  • Remove the duck to a platter and cover with foil. Let stand 15 minutes.
  • Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan. Stir in flour. Cook, stirring and scraping the drippings from the pan about 2 minutes. Stir in remaining orange juice, chicken stock, vinegar and marmalade.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer until well blended and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • To serve, quarter the duck, or carve to your liking. Serve the gravy on the side.

This recipe is not worth your time. The duck was dry and the sauce was flavorless.

I would not recommend this recipe. The duck was tough and the sauce was too sweet.

This recipe was a disaster. The duck was undercooked and the sauce was bland.

I followed the recipe exactly and the duck came out dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The sweetness of the honey and the tartness of the oranges pair perfectly together.

I've made this recipe several times and it never disappoints. The chicken is always moist and flavorful, and the sauce is to die for.
