Duck Breasts With Balsamic Vinegar


Serves: 4
Total Calories: 15

Ingredients

FOR THE BASTE:
1 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey

4 boneless Muscovy duck meat breast halves, 8 to 10 ounces each and about 3/4 inch thick

FOR THE SEASONING:
4 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
4 teaspoons finely chopped fresh marjoram
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

TO MAKE THE BASTE: In a small sauté pan combine the balsamic vinegar and honey. Bring to a boil and cook over high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup. Set aside.

Use a sharp knife to trim any excess fat from the duck breasts if the skin is very fatty, trim it to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Score the skin in a diamond pattern.

TO MAKE THE SEASONING: In a small bowl combine the seasoning ingredients.

Sprinkle the breasts with the seasoning, then brush all over with the baste. Grill skin side down, over Direct Low heat, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F, 12 to 14 minutes, basting and turning once halfway through grilling time. The juices should be slightly pink, the skin golden brown and crisp. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Slice thinly on the bias and serve warm.
