Place duck breast in a small dish and pour marinade over, rubbing marinade all over duck and under skin. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour (6-8 hours, if possible).

3
When ready to cook, preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Remove duck from marinade and wipe excess marinade from the skin (try to get the skin as dry as possible). Place duck, skin-side down, in a cold ovenproof skillet. Place skillet over medium-low heat. Cook skin-side down to render the fat until skin is crispy and golden, about 8-12 minutes. Turn duck over and cook another 2 minutes on meat side.
