Grilled Peach & Duck Breast Salad 🍑🌿
August is here, and summer calls for fresh, simple recipes packed with flavour. This is definitely one of them. ☀️
An easy-to-make salad combining duck breast with grilled peaches, fresh greens, broad beans and cauliflower rice. The sweet, lightly caramelised peaches pair beautifully with the duck, turning a simple salad into something a little more special for summer.

Ingredients – serves 2
• 2 peaches, cut into wedges
• 2 duck breasts
• Sea salt
• ½ tin broad beans, drained
• 100 g lamb’s lettuce (or similar greens)
• 50 g prepared cauliflower rice
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Balsamic vinegar
Method 👇
Lightly score the skin of the duck breasts in a criss-cross pattern, without cutting into the meat. Season generously with sea salt and leave to rest for at least 30 minutes, bringing the duck to room temperature.
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Place the duck breasts skin-side down and press gently for a few seconds so the entire skin touches the pan. Cook for around 4 minutes, then turn and cook for another 1–2 minutes until browned. Remove and leave to rest.
Heat a griddle pan and grill the peach wedges for a couple of minutes on each side, until lightly caramelised and beautifully marked.
Cook the cauliflower rice, either by steaming it or gently sautéing it in a pan without oil.
Divide the lamb’s lettuce between two plates and add the cauliflower rice and broad beans. Arrange the grilled peaches around the salad.
Finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Thinly slice the rested duck breast and arrange it over the salad.
Fresh, colourful and ready to enjoy. ✨
