Polished..this is not an official recipe..just how I do it

Freshly squeezed oranges..into saucepan, reduce...a bit of zest..orange marmalade, a hit of Gran Manier.
Let all cook together until consistency you like
For extra zing..grate some fresh ginger and or garlic into mix.
 
Here's the sauce I make when I do duck a l'orange... - this is enough for 3-4 duck breasts.

½ tbsp brown sugar
50ml white wine vinegar
250ml orange juice
250ml well flavoured chicken stock
zest of 1 orange, finely sliced
segments from 2 oranges

I pan sear the duck breasts and leave aside to rest after cooking.

To make the sauce, put the sugar and vinegar into a saucepan, bring to the boil and reduce until it begins to caramelise. Add the orange juice, reduce down to one third and add the chicken stock. for the last few minutes I carefully place the segments into the sauce to heat through slightly.

I lay the duckbreasts on a serving dish, carefully place the segments around the duck breasts and then gently pour the sauce over the duckbreasts and segments.
