Sesame-Marinated Duck Breasts with Hoisin Sauce; Menu created by Moira Hodgson from O, The Oprah Magazine, June 2007

<DESCRIPTION>The duck breasts in this recipe must marinate at least 4 hours before cooking.

INGREDIENTS

Duck:
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup sesame oil
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
4 boneless duck breast halves (about 7 ounces each)
1/4 cup fresh rosemary, plus some sprigs for garnishing
2 Tbsp. hoisin sauce, plus more for dipping

Salad:
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar, or to taste
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
4 cups bitter greens (arugula, mizuna, frisée, or a combination)
2 ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped

To make duck: In a small bowl, combine garlic, sesame oil, and soy sauce; set aside. Remove any loose fat from duck breasts and score skin lightly with a sharp knife (take care not to cut into the flesh). Place breasts in a nonreactive dish just large enough to hold them. Coat with garlic mixture and sprinkle with rosemary. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours, turning occasionally.

Bring duck breasts to room temperature; preheat gas grill to medium-high, or prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat.

Place duck breasts on grill skin side down. Cook 5 to 8 minutes per side for rare and 8 to 10 minutes for medium rare, turning and brushing with hoisin sauce about halfway through cooking time. Skin should be crisp and brown but not burned.

To make salad: In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Place breasts on a platter and let rest 3 to 4 minutes. Meanwhile, place greens and mangoes in a salad bowl and toss with dressing. Cut duck into slices about 1/4-inch thick and garnish with rosemary sprigs. Serve with salad and a small bowl of hoisin sauce on the side for dipping.</DESCRIPTION>
