Bitter Greens with Duck Breast and Cherries
In this main-course salad, sweet cherries and bitter greens complement the richness of seared duck breast. For the bitter greens, try red Asian mustard greens, watercress or dandelion leaves torn into bite-size pieces, or a blend. You can also use additional whole baby arugula leaves.
