• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Thinly slice courgette. • Finely chop garlic. • Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. • Toast flaked almonds until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
• Return the frying pan to medium heat. • Season duck breast on both sides and place, skin-side down, in the hot pan. • Cook until skin is crisp, 12 minutes. • Increase heat to high and turn to sear flesh on all sides until browned, 1 minute. • Transfer duck to a lined oven tray and roast until cooked through, 10-12 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest for 5 minutes.
• While the duck is cooking, bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Cook risoni in the boiling water until ‘al dente’, 7-8 minutes. Drain and return to the pan.
TIP: ‘Al dente’ risoni is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook courgette, tossing, until golden, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic, garlic & herb seasoning and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and cook until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat, then stir through cooked risoni, baby leaves, grated Parmesan cheese and the butter. Season to taste.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
• Slice roast duck. • Divide veggie risoni, mixed leaf balsamic salad and duck between plates. • Dollop chargrilled capsicum relish over duck and sprinkle over the toasted almonds to serve. Enjoy!
