Such a quick and easy recipe for a
delightful meal. I added a pinch of Chinese 5 spice to give an Asian twist.ByCreated Rosie Bennett

Really delicious! My family was very suprised that the preparation was so simple and the resulting dish was just excellent. Worth trying! I will be adding these duck legs to my regular cooking, even at full price.
