lightbulb_outline Tips
- For extra crispy skin, you can increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Serve the duck with steamed rice or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness of the glaze by adding more or less honey to suit your taste.
- Leftover duck can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or enjoy cold in sandwiches.
- Don't forget to save the duck fat! It's great for roasting potatoes or adding flavor to other dishes.
