Duck:  Score skin, about half way down its thickness. Season aggressively with salt and pepper, allow to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.

  • garlic, minced
  • lime zest
  • lime juice
  • rice wine vinegar (you can sub apple or any good quality white wine vinegar)

To finish:
Duck: Pat dry, place skin side down in a cold pan and turn on to medium-low heat, along fat to slowly render, as it does turn flame a bit higher to crisp skin, once skin a crisp and dark golden brown, remove fat from pan and add glaze, flip breast and remove pan from heat for 3-5 minute, remove breast from pan and allow to rest for an additional 8-10 minutes before slicing.
