      Whoops! I hadn't realized I hadn't made a review! We made this for Thanksgiving. It was excellent. No changes were made at all. This is the 3rd time I've made duck for the holiday, and we didn't miss the boring turkey at all.. :) Thanks for a great duck recipe!

      This was a great recipe. My duck was 5.5 lbs. and thawed, and it took about 2 hours to cook. I did double the sauce, as others suggested, and I let it thicken quite a bit, so it's a good thing I doubled it. I didn't have orange juice, so I substituted the orange sauce packet that came with my duck, and the sauce was delicious. Otherwise, other than putting a ton more garlic in, I followed the recipe exactly. I also brined the duck for about 2 hours before I cooked it, and the end result was a very moist inside and a crispy outside. It was great. Definitely an easy, tasty duck recipe. Thanks!

      Excellent recipe,we use the left over duck drippings as the base for the yorkshire puddings. Also double the sauce recipe as it is so popular when you serve the duck!

      I was tired of the traditional turkey and ham thing for christmas,so I looked up duck recipes on the internet and I found this one. I made two ducks and one ham just in case... Both ducks were gone and I still had ham left over. It was fast and easy and very delicious! It will become my new tradition during the holidays!

      How fantastic!! I just made this as my first duck dish, and I have to say, I was a bit dubious at first about a sage/chili powder/garlic/orange sauce combo. Also, I've had awful gungy duck a l'orange in the past, and hated it. This turned out to be the most flavorful, delicious duck (and sauce!) I could have hoped for. Will definitely be making this again.

      Turned about perfect and delicious. We've never made duck before though we eat it often at restaurants. It was simple and great. We flavored our sauce with a little more heat from tiny bits of habanero. Use a good mango chutney! We got ours from an Indian store because we wanted ours to be more spicy. We tripled the Orange sauce so that we had enough to throw over the bird and also have a side dish for individual servings. We added a few more spices to the bird to our tastes.

      I had never had duck before and was warned that I probably wouldn't like it as it is a darker meat bird. Turkey breast being my favorite. It was wonderful and I will be doing it again.

      Outstanding. Really, really delicious. We poured some boiling water on the duck before seasoning to shrink some of the fat. Otherwise followed recipe and turned out perfect.

      Good recipe and the results were delicious! There could be more details in the recipe, such as the size of the duck (I used a 6.5 pound) and how many slices to make in the breasts (I did one in each). I changed the order of the steps; I stuffed in the apples, then sliced and filled (I spread the extra on the skin), and then sprinkled with spices.

      this was really easy to make, and delicious. It was the first duck I ever cooked and it turned out really good. The orange sauce and the chili powder/garlic powder/salt combo goes good on chicken too.

      This is the first time I've cooked duck and I loved this recipe, it was simple and easy to make. I skipped the orange sauce because I'm not much of a sauce on meat person, but the rest of the recipe was great.

      That was the first time i have cooked or even eaten duck. I was nervous about the whole recipe because it was a special occassion dinner, but i have to say it was a huge success. Before the duck was served a guest told me they had duck as a kid and didnt like it,so that had me strung out, but that same guest had a second helping and a smile on his dial. wonderful raves from everyone at the dinner table. Thank you Quinn for making my first duck experience a very good one.

      This was my first time making duck, and it was fabulous! The only thing I did different was I roasted the duck on a rotissery on my grill. Turned out very well this way too. Also, the apples inside the duck were so gross... but I'm sure this was my fault, not the recipe's, as it was our first duck. I'm thinking my husband didn't scrape the inside out well enough! The L'orange sauce was a big hit! Thanks!

      Completely, absolutely fabulous. There wasn't a piece of duck left on the bone - the sauce was awesome and bread rolls soaked up any extra wonderfully. I wouldn't change a dang thing. Thank you!

      This all made for 1 very rich, spicy, tasty duck. It was easy to make, and the only change I made to the recipe was to use cumquat preserves, rather than peach. I figured that would be OK as cumquats are citrussy-it worked fine for our tastes.
