    Preparation Steps

    1

    Thoroughly clean the duck breasts, then score the skin in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. This helps the fat render and the skin crisp up.

    2

    Peel and finely chop the garlic. Season the duck breasts with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Place the chopped garlic and rosemary sprigs alongside the duck breasts.

    3

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the duck breasts skin-side down in the hot pan. Sear for 5-6 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and crispy.

    4

    Flip the duck breasts and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until the meat is cooked through to your liking.

    5

    Once the duck breasts are cooked, remove them from the pan and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat.

    6

    Serve the pan-seared duck breast with a fresh salad or your favorite side dish.
