Duck Breasts and Blueberries..I have both, any suggestions in doing something with these tonight?

What I did and it hit the spot Exactly.....

Thumped these wonderful duck breast then skin side down crisped them up in the pan.
Turned the, over and finished them in the oven.
Used a little of the duck fat and 4 shallots finely chopped and soften them
Added 1 tsp sugar and a large handful of the blueberries.
Added 1 good tsp Turkey better than bullion paste
about 1/3 cup medium cream sherry and about 1/2 cup water.
Cooked this down ans stirred in a knob of butter.
Couldn't have been better...fuity and no orange flavour.
The duck breasts were pink and tender
We served this with a simple green salad: lettuce, avocado, parmesan cheese and lemon juice
Also those pre bought potato swirls baked (I would have preffered roasted potatoes but time was short)
Because of my DH's HBP I am trying to use less salt and go simple with dressings, sauces etc and this was so good, I will do the sauce again.

 
Joe yummy, I will try....

the blueberries with port. I didn't think of that but used sherry instead. Port would be sublime, I think

 
Lol, Joanie...thumped? Definition? I so love your posts! I always learn something new...

My dh would have loved this, I have an aversion to dark poultry meat and unfortunately, tht includes duck breast.
