Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Score duck skin in a crosshatch. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Lay duck skin-side down, cook 7 min until skin is crispy and golden.

  3. Step 3

    Flip duck, cook 4 min for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.

  4. Step 4

    Bring stock to a simmer in the same skillet. Whisk in oyster sauce and fish sauce.

  5. Step 5

    Mix cornstarch with 2 tbsp water. Stir into simmering stock until gravy thickens, ~2 min.

  6. Step 6

    Steam bok choy in the microwave or a separate pot until tender-crisp, ~3 min.

  7. Step 7

    Slice duck against the grain. Divide rice between two bowls, top with duck and gravy.

  8. Step 8

    Serve with bok choy, pickled ginger on the side, and a small dipping sauce bowl.
