To Serve

Peking Duck – Air Fryer

• Cut Duck Into Two Or Four Pieces. Heat In Air Fryer At 400°F For 5 Minutes.

Peking Duck – Oven

• Before You Start: We suggest first gathering the following before you start to prepare your meal: wire rack, baking sheet, frying pan, pot with steamer basket, low smoke oil.
• Preheat Oven: Set to a high temperature, around 400°F (200℃). A high temperature is crucial for crisping the skin.
• Prepare Duck: For even reheating, allow the duck to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before placing in oven.
• Brush With Oil (Optional): This can help crisp the skin but is optional depending on how much fat is in the skin. Use a low smoke oil due to the high temperature of the oven.
• Place On Rack: Place the duck on a wire rack over a baking sheet. This allows the heat to circulate around the entire duck, crisping the skin all over. If you don’t have a rack, place the duck directly on a baking sheet, but skin may not be as crispy on the bottom.
• Cook Duck: Place duck in preheated oven for 10-15 minutes.
• Check Crispiness: The skin should be visibly crisp, and the meat heated through. If the skin isn’t as crispy as desired, leave it in for a few more minutes. Be careful not to overcook, which will dry out the meat.
• Rest Before Serving: Remove duck from oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes for the juices to redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful. Remember, oven temperatures and times can vary, so these are guidelines. Adjust as necessary for your specific oven.
