Ingredients

  • 2 duck breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup mixed berries (raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
  • Fresh thyme for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Duck: Score the skin of the duck breasts in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Sear the Duck: In a skillet over medium-high heat, place the duck breasts skin-side down. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip the duck and cook for an additional 4-6 minutes for medium doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
  3. Make the Berry Sauce: In the same skillet, add the mixed berries and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to break down. Pour in the chicken broth and balsamic vinegar, and add the erythritol. Stir and let simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Serve: Slice the duck breast and drizzle with the berry sauce. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired. Enjoy!
