Donald Duck is on the Menu Tonight!

Honey/Orange Roasted Duck




Just thought I'd share my duck recipe - for those of you who want it! (It's so good and so EASY)

Ingredients:
1 whole duck (4-6 lbs)
Salt and Pepper TT
1/2 Cup Orange Marmalade
1 T Sherry Wine
1T Orange Juice Concentrate
2 T Soy Sauce
1 tsp Honey

1. Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees.
2. Remove plastic covering from duck (and reach in through the butt of the duck and remove the giblets - normally 1 or 2 bags of insides - yum! Throw away giblets, I never use them.)
3. Poke little holes through the skin and fat (avoid piercing the flesh).
4. Salt and pepper the skin and inside of the duck.
5. Place duck, tummy down, on a cooling rack, and place cooling rack on foil lined cookie sheet.
6. Roast in oven for about 1 1/2 hours, then flip onto back for 30 more minutes. Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes while making sauce.
7. Combine remaining ingredients in a small pot - cook until hot.
8. Slice duck into serving size pieces and glaze with Honey/Orange Glaze.
