METHOD

  1. Preheat oven to moderate, 180°C. Line a baking dish with foil or baking paper.

  3. Increase oven to very hot, 220°C. Bake a further 15-20 minutes, basting once, until skin is crisp and golden.

  4. Remove from oven and rest, covered loosely with foil, 15 minutes. Remove duck breast and remaining meat with skin attached. Slice thinly.

  5. DRESSING: In a small jug, whisk all ingredients together.

  6. SALAD: In a large bowl, combine all ingredients.

  7. Drizzle salad with half dressing, tossing to coat. Add duck and drizzle with remaining dressing to serve.


TOP TIP
  • Use a barbecued chicken in place of duck if preferred, or a Chinese barbecued duck.
  • Try mango in place of orange.
