Directions
- It sounded so good which I thought I'd share it with you all even though I haven't tried it yet. It originates with the winemaker at Chateau Ste.
- With tip of sharp knife, pierce duck skin in several places. Season duck on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat heavy-bottomed skillet. Add in duck, skin-side down, and brown five min or possibly till fat is rendered from skin.
- Turn and brown second side one to two min. Remove duck and reserve.
- Pour off all but 1 Tbsp. duck fat. Add in oil and heat. Add in onion and garlic and saute/fry till onion is tender, about five min. Add in broth, wine, thyme, parsley, cherries, honey and tomato paste. Bring to boil. Cook till liquid is reduced by one-third.
- Meanwhile, remove and throw away duck skin. Using sharp knife, cut duck into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Return duck to sauce and heat through, about five min. Stir in vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To serve, arrange mound of warm pasta on each of two plates. Top each with half of duck and half of sauce. Serve immediately.
