Duck with apples

Repeat the recipe below and you will know how to cook delicious duck legs in a slow cooker along with apples. To repeat the recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

duck legs – 4 pieces;
apples - seven hundred grams;
onion head;
honey - two tablespoons;
juice of half a lemon.

Instead of lemon juice, you can use tangerine or orange juice.

Wash the duck legs and clean them thoroughly. To make the meat more tender, marinate it. To do this, mix the juice of half a lemon in a deep bowl and heat it on the stove, but do not bring it to a boil.

Dissolve the honey, mix thoroughly until the honey is completely dissolved. Place the poultry meat in the marinade and cover the top with a plastic bag or film. We remove to marinate for several hours in a cool, dark place. For example, a refrigerator.

As soon as the required time has passed, remove the legs and begin preparing the dish. To cook stewed duck legs in a slow cooker with apples, you need to finely chop one onion.

Then pour vegetable oil into the bottom of the multicooker bowl. We set the “frying” mode, then you need to put the onion on the bottom and lightly fry it until golden brown.

After this, lay out the legs and fry on both sides until golden brown. Roasting time is 10-15 minutes. Then pour out the remaining marinade, set the “stew” mode and cook the poultry meat under a closed lid in a slow cooker for 50 minutes.

Wash the apples, core them and cut into large slices. Add to the poultry meat and cook for another 10 minutes. Serve hot. Baked apples give duck meat a special delicacy.
