Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 whole duck cleaned and patted dry
- 2 tablespoons Chinese five-spice powder
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon ginger grated
- 3 cloves garlic minced
Hoisin Sauce
- 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- 2 Combine the Chinese five-spice powder, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic in a bowl to make a marinade.
- 3 Rub the marinade all over the duck, making sure to get it inside the cavity as well. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
- 4 Place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 1.5 hours, basting occasionally with the pan juices.
- 5 While the duck is roasting, prepare the hoisin sauce by combining all sauce ingredients in a bowl and mixing well.
- 6 After 1.5 hours, increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and roast for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
- 7 Remove the duck from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
- 8 Serve the crispy duck with the prepared hoisin sauce on the side.
