👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Score the duck skin in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the flesh; season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2. Place the duck breast, skin side down, in a cold pan over medium-low heat. Cook for 8-12 minutes to render the fat until the skin is golden brown and crisp.
3. Pour off excess rendered fat from the pan. Flip the duck breast and sear the flesh side for 3-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness.
4. Remove the duck breast from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender result.
5. Slice the duck breast thinly against the grain and serve immediately.
