Ingredients

• 2 pieces Duck breasts, skin on
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free cornmeal
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 2 cups Vegetable oil for frying
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Lay the duck breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels to ensure the skin is completely dry.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife, score the duck skin in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. This helps the fat render and the skin to crisp up.

Step 3

Season the duck breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Step 4

In a shallow dish, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free cornmeal, and paprika. Mix well.

Step 5

In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk to create an egg wash.

Step 6

Dip each seasoned duck breast into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then coat generously in the gluten-free flour and cornmeal mixture.

Step 7

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Step 8

Carefully place the duck breasts, skin side down, into the hot oil. Fry for about 10-12 minutes on each side, maintaining the oil temperature, until the duck is golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Transfer the fried duck breasts to a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain and rest for about 5 minutes.

Step 10

Slice the duck breasts and serve immediately, accompanied by your choice of sides.
