Cook:
On the skin side first, until it is golden brown. Turn the duck breast over and cook to taste (pink or medium). Close the lid of the QUATRO kamado and broil until lightly browned (about 5 to 8 minutes). Flip the breasts and grill them again until an instant-read thermometer inserted, at the thickness part of a brisket, registers 165°F – 74°C, about 10 to 12 minutes more.

The sauce:
In the same pan, remove the excess fat (but keep some for taste).
Add the finely chopped shallot and fry for a few minutes over medium heat.
Deglaze with the red wine and balsamic vinegar. Let it reduce slightly.
Add the blueberries, honey and chicken stock. Simmer over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens and the blueberries pop.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
For a smoother sauce, you can add a knob of butter at the end of cooking and mix until it melts.

Service:
Cut the duck breast into thin slices and cover generously with the blueberry sauce. Serve with vegetables or sautéed potatoes.


Did you know?

For a successful cooking of duck breast, it is important to grid the skin well. Indeed, this trick will allow the heat to penetrate the duck flesh better and thus, cook the duck breast more evenly.
