directions

Step 1

Add duck breasts to pan and distribute the marinade evenly over all sides of duck. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 hours.

Step 2

Preheat grill to high. Cutting only through the skin and fat, score the duck breasts with five diagonal lines.

Step 3

Grill duck, skin side down, for 1 to 2 minutes just to caramelize skin side.

Step 4

Use a water sprayer to reduce flare up from the duck fat. Duck will colour very quickly.

Step 5

Remove promptly from grill and transfer duck, skin side down to a small roasting pan.

Step 6

Place on upper rack of BBQ. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until breast is still very rare.

Step 7

Drain off duck fat and turn breasts over. Cook another 3 to 4 minutes until duck breast is medium rare.

Step 8

Cover with foil and let rest for five minutes before slicing. Reserve pan drippings as sauce.

Step 9

Combine ingredients for marinade in a medium shallow pan until blended.

Step 10

See the duck for further cooking instructions.
