Ingredients

4 duck breasts
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp hoisin sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sesame oil
8 fresh figs, halved

Instructions

Preheat the grill to medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
Score the skin of the duck breasts in a criss-cross pattern and brush with the sauce mixture.
Place the duck breasts on the grill, skin side down, and cook for 6-8 minutes until crispy. Flip and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes.
While the duck is cooking, place the fig halves on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
Remove the duck breasts and figs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Slice the duck breasts and serve with the grilled figs.
