Answer 2

20-Minute Peking Duck:

Here's a simplified--and delicious--Peking duck with flour tortillas standing in for traditional thin pancakes.

2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
2 (8-ounce) packages boneless duck breast halves, thawed and skinned
1/3 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons Sriracha (hot chile sauce, such as Huy Fong)
4 (6-inch) flour tortillas
1/2 cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut lengthwise into 8 strips
2 green onion tops, cut into thin strips
2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add duck to pan; cook 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook an additional 3 minutes on each side or until done. Cut duck diagonally across grain into thin slices.

Combine hoisin, orange rind, orange juice, and Sriracha. Heat tortillas according to package directions. Spread about 2 tablespoons hoisin mixture down center of each tortilla. Top each tortilla with 1/4 of duck, 2 cucumber strips, 1/4 of onions, and 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds; roll up.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 filled tortilla)

Answer 3

Pot Roasted Duck
Ingredients:

2 ducks, cleaned
1 medium onion, halved
1 small bell pepper, sliced
2 slices bacon
1 small red potato, quartered
salt and pepper to taste
3/4 cup oil
2 cups water

Directions:

Prepare ducks. Season with salt and pepper. In cavity, stuff half of onion, half of bell pepper and half of potato in each duck.
Sew cavity closed with a large sewing needle and sewing thread. Add to hot oil in deep heavy pot.
Brown well on all sides over a medium heat. As you brown, you may need to add dabs of water. Cover after each browning, continue to turn over and over and add water until ducks are tender.
This usually takes about 2 1/2 hours, depending on how tough the ducks are.
Carve ducks on platter. Then add a small amount of water to the bottom of the pot to form a gravy. Serve over rice.
