Madonna del Piatto – Duck and Eggplant

There’s a recipe I want to share from Madonna del Piatto, a blog based in Assisi, Italy. Duck breast in a rosemary balsamic and citrus marinade. It’s tasty, healthy, not too complicated to reproduce. Grilled lemon and garlic marinated eggplants is another recipe that is veritably mouth-watering just by reading.

Not too daunting ingredient list for Duck breast in a rosemary balsamic and citrus marinade.

• 2 large garlic cloves, crushed

Marinade
