INGREDIENTS

• 1 duck
• 1 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup port wine
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 whole orange, preferably seedless

DIRECTIONS

• Rinse the duck inside and outside with clear water. Dry well with a towel. Truss and place on a rack in an open pan breast-side-up.
• Roast in slow oven (325°F) for 35 minutes per pound. Baste every 10 minutes with a mixture of the orange juice, port wine, and salt.
• Cut the whole orange (with the skin) in thin slices. Arrange slices around the duck and on rack in the roasting pan (not in the sauce) about 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Garnish the duck with the orange slices for serving.
• Allow 1 pound dressed weight per person when estimating number of servings.
