  1. Score skin of duck in a diamond pattern and season liberally with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
  2. Heat a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add duck breasts, skin side down, and cook 10 minutes. Flip and cook 3 minutes.
  3. Move pan to a 400°F oven and cook 12 minutes. Remove duck from pan and keep warm.
  4. Pour off extra fat. Place 1 Tbsp back into pan and add shallot and garlic. Sauté over medium high heat until garlic is golden.
  5. Add wine off of the heat and carefully ignite with a long match or firestick. Shake pan until flames die (might wanna have a fire extinguisher).
  6. Boil over medium high heat until reduced by half. Drizzle over duck and serve warm.
