Prepare the duck breasts: Score the skin of the duck breasts with a knife. Cook them skin side down first, in a hot pan, for 5 minutes on each side.
Let rest: Remove the duck breasts from the pan and let them rest on a rack to keep them tender.
Cook the vegetables and prepare the peaches: Cook the green vegetables separately according to their nature. Meanwhile, cut the peaches into wedges.
Caramelize the peaches: In a pan, sauté the peach pieces with a knob of butter, then drizzle them with honey to caramelize slightly.
Detail the vegetables: Cut and arrange the vegetables according to your creativity for a harmonious and aesthetic presentation.
Finalize the cooking of the duck breasts: Put the duck breasts back in the oven at 180°C for 5 minutes, then slice them thinly before plating.
Prepare the sauce: Deglaze the pan used for the peaches with the duck breasts’ cooking juice, then finish the sauce with butter to achieve a creamy texture.
Plate and serve: Arrange the duck breast slices on the plates, add the vegetables and caramelized peaches, then lightly drizzle with sauce. Finish with a few shiso leaves for a touch of freshness.
Let the duck breast rest as long as the cooking time.
