Description

Glazed roast duck.

Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder, or more to taste
  • 1 (5 1/2 pound) whole duck
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 orange - zested, peeled, and cubed
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag fresh cranberries
  • 1 ounce brandy-based orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier®)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. 2. Sprinkle Chinese five-spice powder inside the duck cavity. Add chopped onion and cubed orange.
  3. 3. Combine cranberries, orange liqueur, honey, white sugar, and soy sauce in a saucepan. Cook and stir until glaze reaches a jam-like consistency, 7 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, about 3 minutes.
  4. 4. Place duck on a roasting rack inside a roasting pan; baste with the glaze.
  5. 5. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
