Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Duck breast with skin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 8 leaves Iceberg or Romaine lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cups Cucumber, julienned
- 0.5 cups Carrot, julienned
- 4 stalks Scallions, finely chopped
- 0.25 cups Hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (optional for additional marinade)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the duck breasts dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife, score the skin in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.
Season both sides of the duck with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the duck breasts skin-side down in a cold, oven-safe skillet. Turn the heat to medium and cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Drain excess fat as needed.
Flip the duck breasts and sear the meat side for about 2 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the duck for an additional 6-8 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Remove the duck from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
While the duck is resting, wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves, preparing them as wraps.
Spread about a teaspoon of hoisin sauce on each lettuce leaf.
Layer the sliced duck, cucumber, carrot, and scallions onto each leaf.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
Serve the wraps immediately and enjoy these crispy, low-carb delights!
