Ingredients

300 g free-range duck breast fillets, skin on

2 sprigs sage

200 g purple sprouting broccoli

1 whole large juicy orange

400 g white beans

Steps

Preparing the Duck

Score the duck skin, rub with sea salt and black pepper. Place the fillets skin side down in a cold non-stick frying pan and heat to medium. Cook for 8 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp.
Turn the duck over and cook for a further 4 minutes, basting with the fat.

Preparing the Sides and Serving

Pick the sage leaves. Trim and halve the broccoli stems. Top and tail the orange, removing skin and slice. Toss orange slices with red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Remove the duck to rest. In the same pan, crisp the sage leaves for 1 minute. Cook the broccoli for 4 minutes until charred.
Pour in the beans with their juice, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. Season to taste.
Serve by dividing the broccoli and beans between plates, topping with sliced duck, crispy sage, and orange.
