One 5 pound duck
2 oranges, quartered
1/2 cup orange marmalade
2 tablespoons dry white wine

Place duck, breast side down, on a plastic or microwave oven-proof rack which fits inside a glass baking dish. Combine marmalade, wine, and soy sauce and brush one-third of the mixture over duck. Cook on high for 15 minutes. Drain fat from dish or remove fat with a baster. Turn duck breast side up and brush with marmalade mixture. Cook on high setting for 20 minutes longer, or until duck is tender. Transfer duck to a serving platter and cover with foil. Skim fat from pan drippings. Combine pan drippings with remaining marmalade mixture and serve as a sauce with the duck.
