Tap your duck breasts with a dry towel and put it in a medium-size frying pan. If the breasts are fat, do not pre-heat your pan take them once and regulate the heat to medium-high. If your breasts are thin, preheat the pan before laying them on it. Cook your duck and press it down to give a good sizzle
