Notes

1- Take the time to melt the skin side over very low heat, this will give you a thin layer of very crispy fat, not a soft white centimeter ... Season the meat after cooking, a little salt and pepper mill and fleur de sel, for the crisp!
2- Once your duck breasts are cooked, let them stand for ten minutes, out of the oven, before cutting them. Thus, they will not lose their juice, they will be tender and juicy. It gives you time to heat the plates, it's better.
