1. The day before: score the skin of the duck breast to help render the fat. Either use a very sharp knife to score the skin in a criss cross, diagonal pattern, being careful to only cut the fat, not going into the duck meat at all. The second option for scoring duck breasts: use a sausage pricker. By gently pressing down all over the surface of the duck skin and fat, you're creating lots of tiny holes.
2. Dry out the skin. Once the skin is scored (or pricked), place duck breasts on a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate uncovered for 8-12 hours, or up to 3 days. The cold air from the refrigerator will help to dry out the skin. This is key to getting crispy skin when you render the fat.
3. Preheat oven to 350F. Heat a small amount of canola oil (or other high smoke point oil, such as grapeseed or vegetable oil) in a large skillet over medium heat, no higher!
4. Cook the duck breasts. Season the duck on both sides with salt and pepper, then add skin side down. Cook undisturbed for 5-8 minutes, or until the fat has rendered. You'll know the duck is ready to flip when it easily pulls away from the pan, the fat has shrunk significantly, and the skin is crispy and golden brown.

Low Carb Sticky Sweet Duck Breast And Green Beans

1. Start by laying down 2, 6-oz duck breasts, fat side up. Use a paring knife to score a crosshatch pattern or small X’s over the fat. Sprinkle the salt over the duck fat.
2. In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is evenly hot, place the duck breasts in the skillet with the fat side down. Sprinkle the black pepper over the newly exposed duck breast meat.
3. After the duck breast cooks for about 60 seconds, gently press down the duck breasts into their layers of fat with the back end of a spatula for just a moment each. This helps the fat adhere to the skin as it releases liquid. Cook the duck on this side for about 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning (you may want to use a splatter screen to avoid splattering hot oil). Flip the duck breast over to expose the golden browned fat.
4. Reduce the heat to low. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, stevia, lemon juice, and minced garlic clove. Pour this liquid over the duck breasts into the skillet. Let the ducks breasts cook for a total of 4-5 minutes on this low heat, but no more.
