Sunday Supper: Seared Duck Breast And Apricot Compote Recipe

  2. Combine apricots, pineapple juice, and brown sugar in small sauce pan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, and cook for 6 minutes, or until apricots are soft and thick.
  3. Heat skillet large enough to hold both breasts over high heat, add breasts skin side down, and cook until skin is deep golden brown and much of the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Flip duck breasts and cook to until medium rare (130u0b0F internal temperature), about another 3 minutes.
