Magret de Canard with Berry Port Sauce - Perfeito Foods

Magret de Canard with Berry Port Sauce

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Serves: 2

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 duck magret (breast with skin), about 1 lb

  • 1 ½ tablespoons of Perfeito Chicken Seasoning or  Perfeito All-Purpose Seasoning

  • ½ cup port wine

  • ¼ cup honey

  • 1 lb mixed berries (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries)

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme

 

Instructions:

1. Prep the Duck

  • Score the duck skin with a sharp knife in a shallow criss-cross pattern.

  • Rub Perfeito all over the duck, making sure to season both sides evenly.

Cut the duck skin

2. Sear to Perfection

  • Heat a skillet over high heat. Place the duck skin-side down to render the fat and crisp up the skin. Flip and sear the other side until the meat is still a nice deep red.

  • Remove the duck from the pan, but don’t toss out that golden fat—it’s liquid flavor gold!

3. Make the Sauce

  • In the same pan, sauté the onion in the duck fat until softened. Toss in the thyme for an aromatic kick.

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet and brown the duck breast

  • Add the berries, port wine, and honey. Let everything simmer gently for about 5 minutes, just until the berries soften but don’t completely fall apart.

4. Rest and Slice

  • Let the duck rest for a few minutes—it helps lock in the juices. Then, slice thinly against the grain for tender, juicy pieces.

Cut the meat into thin slices

5. Plate It Like a Pro

  • Spoon the berry port sauce onto a plate and arrange the duck slices over it. Add a sprig of thyme for a simple but elegant garnish.

Pro Tip: Serve with extra sauce and a side of fresh bread or brioche. You’ll want every last drop!
