Duck breast juicy and soft in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake juicy duck breasts in the oven? Prepare all the products listed on the list. If you have frozen meat, remove it from the freezer in advance and leave it at room temperature until completely defrosted. Remove any remaining feathers from the breasts, if any, rinse and dry with paper towels. There should be no residual water on the meat, this is very important.

2. STEP 2

   

   Prepare the marinade. Pour vegetable oil and soy sauce into a deep small container. Add mustard and honey. Peel the garlic and pass through a press. How much garlic should I use? Determine its quantity according to your own taste preferences, I took 4 cloves. Add salt if necessary, but remember that soy sauce is salty on its own. Add dry spices and ground pepper as well. Mix everything.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the duck breasts in a deep container. Mix thoroughly so that the duck is completely in the marinade. Cover the bowl with cling film or a lid and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour. The longer the breasts marinate, the tastier they will be. Can be left in the refrigerator overnight.

4. STEP 4

   

   Place the marinated duck in a baking dish. Place in a preheated oven and bake until done. How long does it take to cook meat and in what mode? Focus on the capabilities of your oven. I baked at 200 degrees for 50-60 minutes. If you are cooking in the oven for the first time, check the degree of doneness periodically so as not to overcook the breasts and to ensure that they remain as juicy as possible.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour the cooking juices over the finished duck breasts.

6. STEP 6

   

   Serve immediately while hot.

7. STEP 7

   

   Offer fresh vegetables and salads to accompany the duck. Garnish the dish with a few sprigs of dill or parsley.
