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.....
