Duck Breasts with Spicy Clementine Sauce

Recipe ingredients

2 duck breasts
2 Tbsp. (30 ml) Irresistibles extra virgin olive oil*
1 small shallot, sliced fine
2 Tbsp. (30 mL) sugar*
3 Tbsp. (45 mL) grated ginger
1 sprig of thyme
4 Tbsp. (60 mL) fresh orange juice
2 oranges, zested
1 cup (250 mL) dried cranberries

Preparation

Score the fat on the duck breasts without cutting through to the meat.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook shallot in hot olive oil until glassy. Put in duck breasts, fat-side down, and cook about 10 minutes.
Pour off fat regularly and save it for future use.
Turn breasts over and continue cooking; add sugar and caramelize 5 minutes or so.
Add ginger, orange juice and zest, and cranberries and cook about 10 minutes. The meat should be pink.
Remove thyme and duck breasts. Let duck rest a few minutes before slicing it.
Slice the breasts into cutlets. Serve cutlets with cranberries.
