Details

Brimming with juicy, savory flavor, this Maple Leaf Farms 9 - 11 oz. boneless duck breast is the epitome of healthy and hearty, high-quality meat. Its strong, meaty flavor sets it apart from other poultry and serves as a uniquely tantalizing option that will upgrade and diversify your menu and captivate your guests. This duck is an excellent source of protein and minerals and features a thick, fatty skin that encourages the deep and rich flavor for which duck is known. The white pekin ducks from Maple Leaf Farms are humanely raised on a cage-free farm and aren't treated with additional hormones and antibiotics to synthetically promote growth. Since it's unseasoned, this duck breast is ready for your favorite blend of herbs, signature sauce, or tangy marinade.

Treat your guests to a traditional Asian-inspired duck soup or marinade with your favorite barbecue sauce and grill for subtle smokiness. Activate your culinary creativity by serving this duck as a topping on nachos, pizza, and salads. Conversely, for a deeply intricate dish, roast the breast and contrast the savory flavors of the meat with the sweet flavors of figs and rosemary. Pair with a side of buttery Yukon Gold potatoes and steamed vegetables for a complete, mouthwatering meal. Before cooking, first thaw the meat and score in 1/4" intervals, rotating and scoring it to form a crisscross pattern. Then, place it on a preheated pan on medium low, cooking for approximately 8 to 12 minutes. Flip the meat and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Place the meat in a 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for 3 to 4 minutes, and then wait at least 2 minutes before cutting. The meat is ready to eat when its internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Add your choice ingredients, plate, and serve!
