Ingredients

Duck Confit: 

Citrus Pea Sprout Salad:

Directions

  1. Duck Confit:
  2. Duck Confit: In a large bowl, mix everything together but the duck and fat. In a tall pan, line the bottom with a layer of the mixture. Place duck legs on top, then cover with another layer. Place in refrigerator overnight (24 hours). In a tall casserole or rondo, melt the duck fat. Set oven at 300 degrees. Wipe off all the mixture and place in fat. Watch carefully, you never want the fat to boil. Cook in the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, or until meat is falling off the bone. Pull from fat and serve immediately or when stored overnight, pan sear at medium heat until brown and crispy on both sides.
