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.

1. Schneider’s recipe calls for a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder because she started with whole peppercorns and allspice berries. I simply stir my salt, freshly ground pepper, sugar, zest and thyme in a small bowl. It works just fine. The mixture should look like sand.
2. Place the duck breasts on a platter and rub the spice mixture into them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. About 20 minutes before cooking, remove the duck breasts from the refrigerator and return to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Pat dry with paper towels. With a paring knife, remove the tenderloin, the thin strip of meat that runs lengthwise down the underside of each breast.
3. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot — it doesn’t have to be smoking — put the duck breasts in fat side down. Let the breasts sizzle for about a minute (or longer if your kitchen isn’t getting too smoky) or a minute and a half, then place the pan in the oven. After two and half minutes total have passed, open the oven, flip the breasts over, close the oven and cook for another two to two and a half minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, transfer the breasts to a platter, and let rest for five minutes. Turn your oven off.
4. While the breasts are resting, finish reducing the sauce. (See my notes below with the sauce recipe — I make the sauce a day in advance, and then heat as much as I think we need for the two of us while the breasts are resting.) Place your sauce in a small sauce pan or frying pan and heat over medium-high heat. In no time, the sauce should start to thicken up, at which point you should remove the pan from the stovetop. Slice the breasts, if desired, and pour your beautiful sauce over top. (Or, don’t slice the breasts, just pour the sauce over top.)
