Baked duck in the oven
Description
The recipe won't take much time. For the first few hours, it's best to roast the duck without any additional ingredients, but just before serving, you can apply a glaze. In this case, it's a mixture of honey, orange juice, soy sauce, and chili, though you can use any other glaze of your choice. This is a wonderful idea for a festive hot dish with minimal effort. Remember the recipe. Serve hot.
