Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces duck breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 medium cucumber
- 3 medium scallions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Score the skin of the duck breasts in a criss-cross pattern using a sharp knife, being careful not to cut into the meat.
Season the duck breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat.
Place duck breasts skin-side down in the skillet and sear until the skin is crispy and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
Turn the duck breasts over and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast for about 8-10 minutes for medium rare, or longer to desired doneness.
Remove the duck from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing it thinly.
While the duck is roasting, prepare the low-carb pancakes: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder.
In another bowl, whisk together eggs, unsweetened almond milk, and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce.
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
In a non-stick frying pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Pour small amounts of pancake batter (about 2-3 tablespoons) into the pan, spreading it into a thin pancake shape.
Cook each pancake for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
To assemble the duck pancakes, spread a small amount of hoisin sauce on each pancake, lay down slices of duck breast, julienned cucumber, and sliced scallions.
Roll or fold the pancake, secure with a toothpick if necessary, and serve immediately.
