 JW> Worldly 10 year old Lexi says, "If you don't believe, you won't

Oh, she knows. She just likes getting loonies under her pillow,
Cadbury Creme eggs and extra Christmas presents. When she told me
"If you don't believe, you won't receive" she also gave my a huge
exaggerated wink.

      Title: Duck Breast Au Poivre
 Categories: Duck, Wine, Grains
      Yield: 4 Servings

      4    Boneless half breast of duck
      6    to 8 oz each
    1/4 c  Black peppercorns; cracked
    1/4 c  Dry red wine
    1/4 c  Port wine
    1/2 c  Chicken stock
           Salt to taste
      2 tb Butter
    Oatmeal Pilaf

  Peel the skin off the duck meat and put it in a large skillet over
  moderate heat to render some fat. Put the cracked pepper on a
  plate and press the meat into the peppercorns to coat both sides.
  Cover with plastic and refrigerate. When the duck skin has
  rendered about 3 or 5 T of fat, remove the skin and discard it. In
  a saucepan, combine red wine, Port and brown stock. Boil the
  mixture until it reduces in volume to about 3 T. Swirl in the
  butter and keep sauce warm. Use the duck fat to saute the breasts
  over high heat for  2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove the duck
  from the pan and let it stand two minutes. Meanwhile pour off the
  fat and deglaze the pan with 2 to 3 T of Port. When this has
  reduced to 1 T, add it to the sauce. Slice the breasts crossways
  about 1/3" thick. Cut at an angle to make the slices wider. Serve
  the slices of duck breast over a ladleful of the Oatmeal "Pilaf"
  and moisten them with a spoonful of sauce.
