4. 4

   Heat an unoiled pan. Prick duck skin all over, add duck skin side down to pan, cook until browned and crisp. (you will have to drain the fat several times while cooking as there is a lot of fat in the skin of a duck.) Spread about a teaspoon of marinade onto the meat of the breast then place on a wire rack skin side up. Bake in pre heated oven 180c 20-25 Min's or until cooked as desired. I turn the grill on for the last couple of minutes of cooking to really crisp up the skin.
