Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Season duck cavity with five-spice powder; add chopped onion and cubed orange to cavity.

Combine cranberries, orange liqueur, honey, white sugar, soy sauce, and orange zest in a saucepan; cook and stir until glaze reaches a jam-like consistency, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool slightly, about 3 minutes.

Place duck on a roasting rack inside a roasting pan; baste with glaze.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near but not touching the bone, should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
