Roast duck is easier than ever with this recipe. To render the fat and ensure a crisp skin, the duck is first steamed by cooking it over a roasting pan filled with water. Scattering a handful of coriander seeds into the steaming water releases their citrusy scent, which is accentuated by the oranges and lemons stuffed in the duck. The duck then roasts until the meat is tender and the skin is a crisp, toasty brown. The citrus and soy-accented pan juices are cooked down to a sauce that's perfect with the rich meat. Serve this duck with rice to soak up the flavorful sauce.
Ken Hom is the authority on Chinese stir-frying—he's written four books on the subject. So when Hom replaced chicken with meatier, richer duck breasts in a stir-fry, we knew it would be a good idea: The duck has enough flavor to stand up to the mix of chiles, garlic, and peanuts here.
In these tacos, simply seasoned duck breast is heated on the stovetop before it is roasted and paired with a cilantro-lime sauce that gets a kick of heat from pickled jalapeño. Be sure to let the duck breast rest for the full 10 minutes before slicing so it retains its juices. You can also swap in eight ounces of shredded roasted chicken, pork, beef, or turkey for the duck if you're in a time crunch or want to use up leftovers. Shredded carrot, sliced scallion, and radish sprouts round these tacos out.

Squab is the main ingredient in this dish at Jason Franey's restaurant, but duck is similar in taste and texture and works wonderfully in this adaptation. A little bit of truffle oil in the dressing for the salad mimics the restaurant's vinaigrette, which Franey flavors with truffle in three forms: juice, oil, and scraps.
