Duck Confit (Legs)

Duck Confit (Legs) is a classic French preparation — legs slowly cooked and preserved in their own fat until tender, often finished to crisp the skin; it’s commonly served in bistro cooking and regional dishes such as cassoulet. Nutritionally it’s notable for being rich and energy-dense, providing about 33g of fat per 100 g, and is typically higher in saturated fat and salt than lean poultry. It does deliver high-quality protein and useful minerals like selenium, but because of its fat and sodium content it’s best enjoyed occasionally or balanced with lighter sides and plenty of vegetables.
