Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless duck breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 rashers streaky bacon, finely chopped
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 50ml red wine
  • 250ml fresh chicken stock
  • 175g fresh or frozen peas
  • 1 tbsp butter, softened
  • 1 tbsp plain flour

Directions

  1. Cut the duck into bite-size strips. Pour the olive oil into a pan over a medium-high heat. When very hot, stir-fry the duck strips for 1-2 minutes until seared all over. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the bacon and shallot to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until the onion has softened. Add the wine and bubble for 1 minute. Add the stock and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Add the peas and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Mix the butter and flour together and whisk into the sauce, until thickened, then season. Return the duck and heat through. Serve with mashed potato or Jersey Royals.
