Slow-Cooker Duck Breasts image

My husband and son are duck hunters, and I am always trying to find new ways to cook the meat. I created this slow-cooker duck breast dish a couple of years ago, and it instantly became a family favorite. The flavors of the herbs really compliment the duck. -Sherri Melotik, Oak Creek, Wisconsin
