Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220 C, 200 Fan, Gas Mark 8. Slash the skin of the ducks diagonally, about 4 times on each breast. Sprinkle over the soy sauce and rub on to the skin with your hand.
- Arrange skin side up on a rack over a baking tray. Cook for about 20 minutes but check after 15- the skin should be crisp, the flesh pinkly tender.
- Meanwhile peel the oranges removing as much pith as possible. Slice the oranges crosswise and then chop each slice into small chunks.
- Chop the red onion finely. Cut along the chilli lengthways, deseed and chop very finely.
- Mix together the onion, orange, chilli, mint, coriander and a little salt. Squeeze over the lime gradually, tasting until to your taste. Mix well and set aside until needed.
- When the duck is cooked rest for 5 minutes before slicing diagonally and serving.
