Duck confit & goat cheese-stuffed portobellos with vegetables
I think the real selling point of this dish is that you can make it using nothing but a baking dish, so no need to wash lots of dishes. In other words, you can procrastinate all day and still impress your guests come evening!

- 1 sprig fresh oregano
- 2 Portobello mushroom caps
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
- Place duck legs in an oven-safe dish with the tomatoes, artichokes, sprig of oregano and Portobello mushrooms. Set aside.

- Season and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until duck skin is golden brown.
- When ready to serve, crumble the goat cheese over the mushrooms. Top with tomatoes and artichokes.
