If you’ve never made duck breasts, you’ll be amazed how quick and easy this recipe is. The fruitiness of the blueberry sauce works wonderfully with the rich, crisp duck skin. Serve with asparagus, broccolini or green beans drizzled with olive oil, or use the extra rendered duck fat on the veggies. Ask for mild-flavored Peking duck at your market’s butcher counter.
