Ingredients
Method
1.Pat the duck breasts dry. With a sharp knife, make a criss-cross pattern in the skin, then salt both sides well. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan on medium heat and carefully put the breasts, skin side down, in pan. Lower the heat and cook until the skin has crisped and much of the fat rendered. Turn and cook for a further 3-4 minutes, then rest for 10 minutes.
2.On a platter, spread the rocket, quartered beets and orange slices.
3.Slice the warm duck breast with a sharp knife diagonally – it should be cooked and crispy on the outside but pink in the middle. Lay the duck slices over the salad.
4.Mix the remaining olive oil and orange juice together, then pour over the salad. Scatter with the pistachios and serve.
