Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190oC.
- Heat a skillet or frying pan to hot and sear the duck breasts for a minute or so on each side, season and place in the preheated oven skin side up for about 15 minutes (or longer if you prefer it more well done).
- Mix the honey, 1tbsp of the olive oil and the fennel seeds and pour over the pear slices in a baking tray giving them a little mix. Add this to the oven after 5 minutes of cooking.
- After another 5 minutes add the walnuts to the pears and mix again. Return to the oven for 5 minutes more.
- Meanwhile drizzle the remaining olive oil, orange zest and juice over the kale in a serving bowl and give it all a good scrunch with your hands.
- Add the cheese, pear and walnut mixture and give a little toss through.
- When the duck is cooked to your liking, remove from the oven and rest for a few minutes before slicing and dropping into the salad.
