Duck w/ date XO

i made a seared duck breast with a date XO sauce, green oil some thin Apple slices and spiced pecans. The date XO was delicious and im going to keep playing around with fruit variations of XO sauce.

Forgive my ignorance, what's an XO?

Its named after XO cognac (due to both being expensive) and made from dried scallops, abalone, chinese ham (like procuitto), garlic, chilli and shallots. Lots of umami and pricey to make due to expensive ingredients. Really good with seafood

For this I used fish sauce instead of dried scallop/ shrimp for the simple fact they I was using what was around at the time, but I'm sure with those ingredients it would make this a show stopper.
