1
Begin by heating up only 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
-
2
While the oil is heating, make four shallow slits in the fatty side of the duck breast.
-
3
Turn it over to the meaty side and make 4 to 5 slits around a centimeter deep...this is where we will add the lime wedges.
-
4
When the oil is hot, place the duck filet in the pan fat side down and let it brown for less than a minute.
-
5
Flip it and quickly brown it on the meaty side for less than a minute.
-
6
Transfer the duck breast into a baking pan and smear it with the honey.
-
7
Slice the lime into wedges and cut those wedges in half.
-
8
Wedge one into each of the slits in the top of the duck (the meaty side).
-
9
Sprinkle the whole thing with half of the thyme and put it in the oven at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.
-
10
In the meantime, add the rest of the oil into the pan over medium heat.
-
11
Then add the slices of zucchini.
-
12
Sprinkle them with the rest of the thyme and flip them 2 or three times.
-
13
They should take 3-5 minutes maximum.
-
14
When done they should be slightly brown on each side, or at least a little translucent.
-
15
Place the zucchini on a plate and place the finished duck on top.
-
16
Pour the honey drippings from the pan onto the duck.
