Connie Veneracion
If you're a fan of fast and easy but terrifically delicious recipes, this roast duck rice bowl is guaranteed to make you dance with joy.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 boneless duck breast
  • salt
  • pepper

For the sauce

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce, available in the Asian section of groceries and supermarkets
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

To serve

  • cooked rice
  • finely sliced scallions

Instructions
 

Roast the duck breast (click for photos)

  • Preheat the oven to 375F.
  • Wipe the duck breast dry with paper towels.
  • Heat an oven-safe frying pan.
  • Lay the duck breast in the hot pan, skin side down (it will sizzle!) and, over high heat, cook until the skin is nicely browned and fat has been rendered.
  • Flip the duck breast and sear the other side.
  • Transfer the frying pan with the duck to the oven and roast the duck for 8 to 15 minutes depending on how rare or cooked you want it. Personally, I lean toward the 15-minute cooking time.

Make the sauce

  • While the duck is in the oven, mix the ingredients for the sauce.
  • Take the duck out of the oven, transfer to a chopping board and cover loosely with foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Assemble the rice bowl

  • Slice the duck breast and divide into portions.
  • Half fill bowls with cooked rice (see also: how to cook rice), arrange the duck slices on top, drizzle the sauce over the duck and sprinkle with sliced scallions.
