European grocery stores have a much wider range of meats than American stores. This wonderful duck breast was prepackaged and obviously not a luxury item.  I bought this beauty at the Monoprix.

On low to medium heat slowly render the duck fat while drinking pastis.

Once the fat has render, turn up the heat and sear both sides quickly.
