Always place duck breast in a cool pan skin side down, then turn the heat to medium low to start rendering the fat for 10 minutes. This low and slow method gives the perfect crispy skin.
Score the skin by cutting it into 1/4 inch intervals in a crisscross pattern on the duck breast. This will ensure the fat is rendered evenly. You can render off up to 70% of the fat this way.
Save the rendered duck fat! You can use it to roast vegetables or add to mashed potatoes.
