Ingredients

• 2 pieces duck breast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 400 grams shirataki noodles
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 2 cups bok choy
• 3 stalks scallions
• 0.5 cup cilantro
• 1 unit lime
• 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Pat the duck breasts dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Score the skin of the duck breast in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.

Step 3

Place the duck breasts skin side down in a cold, nonstick frying pan. Turn the heat to medium-high. As the skin heats, fat will render out.

Step 4

Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown, then flip and cook the meat side for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare or until desired doneness.

Step 5

Remove the duck from the pan and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing thinly.

Step 6

Drain and rinse the shirataki noodles well under hot water to remove any packaging odour. Set aside.

Step 7

In a large skillet or wok, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and finely grated ginger, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 8

Add sliced red bell pepper and continue to stir fry for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, and bok choy, cooking until the bok choy begins to wilt, about 2 minutes.

Step 10

Add the shirataki noodles to the pan and toss them well with the vegetables and sauce until the noodles are heated through, about 3 minutes.

Step 11

Slice the scallions thinly and chop the cilantro. Add them to the pan along with the lime juice from half the lime and the crushed red pepper flakes, tossing to combine.

Step 12

Arrange the sliced duck on top of the noodles and garnish with additional cilantro and lime wedges if desired.

Step 13

Serve hot, allowing everyone to add more lime juice according to taste.
