Baked Duck with Apples and Oranges

Delicious, beautiful and aromatic baked duck! Duck meat is an excellent source of high-quality protein and contains a balanced set of amino acids. A serving of baked duck will provide you with generous amounts of iron, phosphorus, zinc, copper, selenium, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamins B6 and B12. By the way, 100 g of duck contains almost half of the recommended daily intake of niacin (nicotinic acid), which helps reduce “bad” cholesterol in the bloodstream.

Step 1
Set of ingredients.

Step 2
We wash the duck well, trim off excess fat and dry it. Mix mustard, sour cream, salt, pepper and other spices (I added sweet paprika and a little suneli hop) in a bowl.

Step 3

Step 3
Coat the duck well with this marinade inside and out and leave to marinate for about an hour.

Step 4

Step 4
Wash the apples and oranges and wipe dry. We take out the seeds from the apples, the seeds from the oranges, if any, and cut off the white partitions inside. Cut the fruit into large pieces.

Step 5

Step 5
Stuff the duck tightly and seal the hole with toothpicks.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the duck in a baking sleeve and place the remaining fruit there. Tie it tightly and place it on a baking sheet. Donʼt forget to poke a few holes in the sleeve! Place the baking sheet with the prepared duck in the oven and turn it on at 190 degrees. Bake for two hours. You don’t even have to cut the sleeve—everything turns beautifully brown.

Step 7
After this, carefully remove it from the sleeve, place it on a large beautiful dish, decorate it and serve it to the table. The duck turns out very tender, aromatic, with a pleasant orange flavor.
