Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Pat the Duck dry and season inside and out with Salt and Black Pepper.
Place the Duck on a roasting rack in a roasting pan.
Roast for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the Duck is roasting, prepare the Cherry Sauce. Combine all Cherry Sauce ingredients in a saucepan.
Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
During the last 30 minutes of roasting, brush the Duck with the Cherry Sauce every 10 minutes.
Let the Duck rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving with the remaining Cherry Sauce.
