Sautéed Duck Breast with Cherry-Pistachio Salsa

Rating: Unrated

Duck breasts cook more quickly than turkey and you can easily adjust this recipe for the number of guests you'll have. Look for boneless duck breasts in the freezer section of your supermarket. You can substitute chicken if you don't like duck.
