Ingredients

2 duck breasts, skin on

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup orange juice

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons butter, divided

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 shallot, minced

1/4 cup chicken broth

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

With a sharp knife, gently score duck breast skin in a tight crosshatch pattern, keeping the scores 1/8 inch apart. If you prefer a little fat left on the breasts after cooking, just barely score the skin; to render more fat, score more deeply, taking care not to expose the flesh.
