If you can master how to prepare duck breasts well, a whole range of dishes will open up to you. In these few simple steps, you can prepare juicy, succulent duck breasts in about 15 minutes. From there, you can explore many new flavors and pairings. Here’s what you need to do.
Ingredients
All you need are the duck breasts, butter, and five-spice. This can come in a paste or a powder. This recipe will work for any amount of duck. But if you are cooking four duck breasts, use about three teaspoons of five-spice.
Prepare and Fry
Melt a stick of butter in a pan on high heat. Cover the duck breasts in the five-spice. Place them on the buttery pan with the skins down. This makes them get nice and crispy. Cook like this for about 8-9 minutes, or until crispy. When that side is done, turn them over to cook the other side. If there is excess fat, pour it away so it doesn’t spit. Cook on the reverse side for about 7 minutes.
Serve
When they’re cooked, remove them from the pan and slice them into chunks. And there you have it—succulent duck breasts ready to eat!
