Serves 4

4 duck breasts
1 cup of milk
salt and pepper
1 cup of flour
1 cup plus 2 Tbs. olive oil
4 slices of ham of your favorite kind
4 slices of cheese of your favorite kind
4 eggs
Lettuce, tomato and mayo (enough for four sandwiches)
4 Kaiser rolls or favorite bun

To prepare the duck Milanese place each duck breast in between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound to about 1/8 inch thick with a mallet or pan.  Place each breast in the milk and soak for about 30 minutes.  Heat a heavy bottomed skillet with ¼ inch of olive oil covering the bottom to a medium-high heat.  Remove the duck from the milk, season with salt and pepper and dredge in the flour until dry.   Pan fry the breasts flipping once in the oil until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes.  Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.

In a non-stick pan heat to medium-high heat and add 1 Tbs. of olive oil.   Add the ham and sauté slightly on both sides until hot and browned.  Melt the cheese on the ham before removing from the pan then place on top of the duck. 

To assemble the chivito split the buns and toast slightly.  On the bottom half place the duck, ham and cheese.  Fry 4 individual eggs in 1 Tbs. olive oil to your liking, either sunny side up, over easy, etc. and place on top of the cheese.  Top with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise.
