Step by Step guide

Step 1

Prepare the duck breasts by making diamond-shaped cuts in the skin with a knife, being careful not to cut into the meat. Rub with salt and paprika. Place skin-side down in a cold skillet and fry for 15 minutes over low heat, then flip and fry for another 5–7 minutes.

Step 2

In the meantime, peel the orange, cut it in half, and slice one half into 8–10 thin slices.

Step 3

Place the breast on a cutting board and make deep cuts (almost to the skin) with a sharp knife, inserting a slice of orange into each cut.

Step 4

Place the breast in a baking dish and put it in an oven preheated to 392°F (about 400 degrees Fahrenheit) for 10–15 minutes, basting it with orange juice and fat from the skillet during the process.
