Impress your better half with this simple, sexy dish!
Only made for 2 and it doesn't take much time to prepare this restaurant style dish.
Having never made duck breast before, possibly because I'm not into game, I decided to try it.
Wow was I surprised! The blueberry sauce is dark, rich and luscious without sweetness.....
See if you like this one.....
