Tall Tales and Recipes from the New South
INGREDIENTS:
2 duck breasts
Salt and pepper to taste
1 eggplant, cut into 3/4-inch slices
1/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 red bell peppers, julienned
2 onions, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 ounces port
1 cup duck or veal stock
Chopped fresh basil to taste
1/2 cup pitted niçoise olives
TO PREPARE:

Coat the sliced eggplant lightly with the flour. Fry in the 1 tablespoon
olive oil in a skillet until cooked through; drain. Remove to a platter;
keep warm.
-
Combine the red peppers, onions and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saucepan.
Cook, covered, over low heat until the vegetables are tender but not brown.

-
Sauté the duck skin side down in a skillet until crispy; turn the
