- 1 duck breast
- 2 small shallots
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 1/3 cup cognac
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tbsp melted butter

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Cut off the tops of the apples and set the "lids" aside. Remove the apple cores, hollow out the apples with a spoon, and set the apple pulp aside. Brush the insides of the apples with melted butter.
- Dice the shallots. Place the duck breast skin-side down on a chopping board and place the garlic cloves and rosemary on top of the meat. Mince the duck breast, including the garlic and rosemary, with a sharp knife. Add the chopped meat to the shallots and apple pulp, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
- Cook the ground duck mixture in a pan over medium heat, add the cognac, and flambé it. Add the chicken broth to the pan and let it boil down.
- Place the hollowed apples in a baking dish, fill them with the ground meat mixture, place the apple "lids" back on top, and cook for 20 minutes.
