    This is the recipe for you. Easy and just delicious. All I did differently was add a smashed garlic clove to the marinade. We had this for the Chinese New Year with Wolfgang Puck's stir-fried Chinese vegetables and it was the best duck meal we have eaten in a long time. The plum wine sauce has incredible flavor; lots of "mmm-ing" at the dinner table!

    I had duck with plum sauce in a restaraunt and thought it was great. I went to Food Network and found this reciped, made it and found it to be nearly the same recipe that I had eaten in restaraunt. Perhaps the chef found it in the same place.
