Instructions:

For the duck breast with honey glaze, rinse the duck breasts with cold water and carefully pat dry.

For the marinade, pluck the thyme leaves from the stems and chop finely. Mix the olive oil with the chopped thyme, honey, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to make a marinade. Add the duck breasts to the marinade and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

On a hot grill, sear the duck breasts well on the skin side first, you want the skin to get really crispy. Turn and sear the meat side as well. Place 3 pieces of aluminum foil on the work surface.

Now remove the duck breasts from the grill and wrap them in the aluminum foil. Brush with the leftover marinade. Place on the grill again and continue roasting for about 12 minutes. The duck meat should still be tender pink inside. Meanwhile, turn frequently.

Remove the duck breasts from the grill and let them rest in the foil for about 10 minutes. Then unwrap the duck breast with honey glaze and slice diagonally.
