SWORDFISH AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH GNOCCHI WITH LEEK SAUCE
Steps:
- For the gnocchi: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Very lightly oil one of the cut sides of the squash and season with salt. Place the potato and squash on a sheet pan and bake until both are tender and able to be pierced with a knife, 30 to 45 minutes.
- Scoop the squash out of the outer skin, transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Set aside.
- Peel the skin off of the potato. Grate the potato with a box grater and transfer to a bowl to cool slightly.
- When the potato is just warm and there is no visible steam, add the butternut squash puree, flour, cheese, egg yolk and some salt. Using your hands, mix to form a dough. Once the dough forms, move to a smooth surface and gently knead the dough for 3 to 5 minutes, adding flour as needed. Cover and allow the dough to rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Cut the dough into strips and roll to form the cut dough into even shaped logs. Cut the gnocchi to size, each about 1-inch long. Use a fork on a floured surface to shape the gnocchi into uniform pillows
- Put the gnocchi in boiling salted water just until the gnocchi float, only a few minutes.
- For the sauce: Melt the butter in a small pot over medium-low heat, then add the shallots and leeks and sweat without achieving any color, 5 minutes. Add the wine and reduce for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the stock, lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the cream and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the sauce to a blender, process until smooth and adjust the seasoning.
- For the swordfish: Heat two pans over medium-high heat, one with the butter and one with the oil.
- Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper, and sear in the oiled pan. Once it is seared, flip the fish and lower the heat until cooked through.
- In the other pan, sweat the shallots, then add the gnocchi and heat through. Adjust the seasoning, then stir in the herbs.
- To serve, arrange the gnocchi on a plate or bowl. Place the fish on top and spoon the leek sauce around. Garnish with crispy fried leeks, if desired.

Steps:
- For the red wine sauce:.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook the mustard seeds and shallots until the shallots are translucent. Add the beets and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine, orange juice, vinegar and honey, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer gently until reduced to about 1 cup (250 ml), about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in another saucepan, bring the veal stock to a boil, then let it reduce to about 1 cup (250 ml) over low heat, about 30 minutes.
- Strain the wine mixture through a fine sieve set over the pan of reduced veal stock, pressing down on the vegetables to extract maximum flavor; discard the solids. Stir the sauce, then continue to cook over low heat until slightly thick, about 15 minutes. Add the butter, whisking constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- For the duck breasts:.
- Score the duck on the skin side. Remove the excess fat around the breast, and remove the tip, if desired. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the duck breast, skin-side down, in a room-temperature skillet with no oil. Set the skillet over medium-high heat and cook for 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until medium-rare, 8 to 10 minutes. Let the duck breasts rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes.
- Slice the duck. Divide the Butternut Squash Gnocchi among plates. Top with the Roasted Fennel and duck. Add a spoonful of sauce and serve.
- Butternut Squash Gnocchi:.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper and flour them to prevent the gnocchi from sticking.
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over each squash half and season with salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet, cut-sides down, and bake for 1 hour. Let cool.
- Scoop the flesh of the squash into the bowl of a food processor. Add the eggs, flour, 1 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Process just until the dough is soft (depending on the size of the squash, you might need more flour). Do not over mix.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Roll portions of dough into long ropes that are 2 centimeters (about 3/4-inch) in diameter. Cut ropes crosswise into pieces that are 2 centimeters (about 3/4-inch) long. Transfer the prepared baking sheet.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, about 2 minutes. Transfer the gnocchi with a slotted spoon or wire skimmer to a bowl of icy cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the gnocchi until golden. Add the veal stock and butter, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the gnocchi are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chives and cheese.
- Roasted Fennel:.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fennel and season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning to sear all sides, until caramelized, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 30 minutes.

Active time: 1 3/4 hr Start to finish: 2 1/2 hr
Yield Makes 6 first-course servings
Number Of Ingredients 16
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 500°F.
- Arrange squash halves, cut sides down, in an oiled shallow baking pan and put potatoes alongside. Roast vegetables in middle of oven until squash is tender, about 25 minutes. Transfer squash to a cutting board and potatoes to oven rack, then continue to roast potatoes until tender, about 12 minutes more.
- When cool enough to handle, scrape flesh from squash, discarding skin, then force flesh through ricer into a bowl. Measure out 3/4 cup purée and put in another bowl (reserve remainder for another use). Remove skin from potatoes while still hot and force flesh through ricer into bowl with squash. Spread squash-potato purée in another shallow baking pan and cool completely.
- Return purée to bowl and stir in egg, cheese, thyme, sage, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg. Add flour, then gently knead dough by hand 1 minute (it will be soft and slightly sticky).
- Turn dough out onto a floured cutting board and cut into 3 portions. Gently roll each portion into a long log about 3/4 inch thick. Cut each log into 3/4-inch pieces with a floured knife.
- Press a piece of dough against tines of a floured fork and push with a floured thumb in a forward motion toward end of tines, letting gnocchi fall from fork onto a floured kitchen towel. Repeat with remaining pieces of dough.
- Cook duck legs, skin sides down, in batches in a large heavy skillet over moderate heat, turning once, until browned and some of fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Transfer duck to cleaned cutting board, then discard all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet, reserving skillet.
- When duck is cool enough to handle, discard skin and bones, then pull meat into 1/4-inch-thick pieces.
- Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet and remove from heat. Cook gnocchi in 3 batches in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until centers are cooked through, about 3 minutes. (Gnocchi will float to top after about 1 1/2 minutes.) Transfer as cooked with a slotted spoon to butter in skillet.
- Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, then stir in chard and salt. Cook, covered, just until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
- While chard is wilting, heat reserved duck fat in skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté duck, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add chard, including any cooking liquid, and duck to gnocchi and cook over moderate heat, tossing gently, until heated through. Serve sprinkled with cheese.

Transfer bacon to paper towels. Discard all but 2 tablespoons drippings in skillet. Add onion to skillet; sauté until tender and golden, about 12 minutes. Add butter, then broccoli rabe and sauté just until broccoli rabe begins to wilt. Add ravioli; stir until heated through. Stir in bacon. Season with salt and pepper. Divide ravioli mixture among 4 plates. Arrange duck leg-thigh pieces atop ravioli. Thinly slice duck breasts and fan out alongside. Drizzle with reduced plum wine syrup and serve.

PEPPERED DUCK BREAST WITH RED WINE SAUCE
Back in 2011, this version of steak au poivre made with duck breasts was introduced as part of a New Year's menu. Fancy enough for a gathering, but relaxed enough that it doesn't feel like too much, you can make it any time you want something a little more special than your average fare.

Steps:
- Remove the tenderloins (the thin strips of meat on undersides of the duck breast) and reserve for the sauce. With a sharp knife, trim away any gristle from the undersides of the breasts and trim any excess fat. Score the skin in a diamond pattern, cutting through the fat but not quite reaching the meat. Lightly sprinkle salt on both sides, then rub 1 teaspoon crushed black peppercorns all over. Sprinkle with the garlic and a few thyme sprigs, cover, and leave at room temperature for 1 hour. (For deeper flavor, refrigerate the breasts for several hours or overnight, then return to room temperature before cooking.)
- Heat 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and the reserved duck tenderloins; let them brown well, stirring occasionally, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and a small thyme sprig and let them fry for 1 minute.
- Add the broth and 1/4 cup wine, raise the heat to a brisk simmer and let the liquid reduce to about 1 1/4 cups, about 10 minutes. Strain the sauce and return to the heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons red wine and the Cognac or brandy and cook for 1 minute more. Dissolve potato starch in 2 tablespoons cold water, then stir the mixture into the sauce. Whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season to taste with salt. (Sauce may be made in advance and reheated, thinned with a little broth.)
- Remove and discard the garlic and thyme sprigs from the breasts. Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high. When the pan is hot, lay in the duck breasts, skin-side down, and let them sizzle. Lower the heat to medium and cook for a total of 7 minutes, checking to make sure the skin isn't browning too quickly. With tongs, turn the breasts over and let them cook another 3 minutes for rare, 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a warm platter and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice crosswise, not too thickly, at a slight angle and serve with the sauce.

DIVINE BONELESS DUCK BREAST WITH PORT WINE SAUCE
I first found and tried this recipe in 1999 on Epicurious. It does take a lot of work but it is so worth it! The sauce can be made the day before and slowly reheated. This is divine duck! But(hiccup), here's the lesson I learned, don't drink too much wine while making it or you'll get lost in the many steps.

Steps:
- marinade:.
- In a bowl whisk together the wine, the vinegar, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, gingerroot, oil and salt and pepper to taste.
- Put the duck breasts in a large resealable plastic bag, pour the marinade over them, and seal the bag.
- Put the plastic bag in a large bowl and let the duck marinate, chilled, overnight.
- Remove the duck from the marinade and pat it dry between layers of paper towels.
- Preheat oven to 450.
- Score the skin of each duck breast in a crosshatch pattern with a sharp knife and sprinkle both sides of the duck with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat 2 heavy skillets over moderately high heat until they are hot and in each skillet cook 1 of the duck breasts, skin side down, for 10 minutes.
- Turn the duck and cook it for 2 minutes more.
- Transfer the skillets to the middle of the preheated 450°F oven (wrap the skillet handles with a double thickness of foil if the handles are not ovenproof), and roast the duck for 5 to 7 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 145°F to 150°F for medium meat.
- While the duck is roasting, in a small heavy saucepan combine the sugar and the water, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, and boil it, swirling the pan, until the mixture is a golden caramel. Add the vinegars carefully, swirling the pan until the caramel is dissolved, and reserve the mixture.
- Transfer the duck to a cutting board and let it stand, covered loosely with foil, for 5 minutes.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from 1 of the skillets and in the fat remaining in the skillet cook the shallot and the garlic over moderately low heat, stirring, until the shallot is softened.
- Add the dry red wine and boil the mixture until it is reduced by half.
- Add the broth, boil the mixture until it is reduced by one third, and pour the mixture through a fine sieve set over the reserved vinegar mixture, pressing hard on the solids.
- Whisk in the cream and the Port, simmer the mixture for 1 minute, and add the beurre manié, a little at a time, whisking until the sauce is smooth.
- Simmer the sauce, whisking occasionally, for 2 minutes, whisk into the sauce any juices that have accumulated on the cutting board, and season the sauce with salt and pepper.
- Cut the duck diagonally across the grain into thin slices, divide the duck slices among 8 plates, and spoon the sauce over the duck.
- **A beurre manié is made by kneading together 3 tablespoons softened unsalted butter and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.
