Ingredients

  • 2 whole wild duck breasts, cut in half and skin removed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 small oranges, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 medium apple, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 medium onion, cut into eighths
  • 1 can (6 ounces) frozen (thawed) orange juice concentrate

Steps

  • 1
    Sprinkle duck with salt and pepper. Layer duck, oranges, apple and onion in 3 1/2- to 6-quart slow cooker. Pour orange juice concentrate over top.
  • 2
    Cover and cook on low heat setting 8 to 10 hours or until duck is tender.
  • 3
    Remove duck from slow cooker. Discard fruit and onion mixture. Note: This recipe was tested in slow cookers with heating elements in the side and bottom of the cooker, not in cookers that stand only on a heated base. For slow cookers with just a heated base, follow the manufacturer’s directions for layering ingredients and choosing a temperature.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    No hunters in the family? Enjoy this easy duck dish anyway. Specialty grocery stores and butcher shops often carry duck from farm-raised sources.
  • tip 2
    The addition of the fresh oranges, apple and onion enhances the natural flavor of wild duck. However, these ingredients do pick up the wild flavor from the cooking juices of the duck. Most people find they don't care for the flavor of the fruit and onion after it is cooked, so we suggest discarding them.
