Score the top of the duck breast.

Make the marinade: Mix all the above ingredients together except the
chicken stock. Place the breast in the marinade and refrigerate for at
least 2 hours.

Remove the breasts from the marinade, pat dry and pan fry them in olive oil
on both sides until they are brown. Place in the oven skin side down for 5
minutes, remove from the oven and leave to rest.

Add the duck marinade to the chicken stock and reduce until the sauce
reaches the right consistency, strain through a fine seive into a pan,
season with finely milled pepper. Keep warm.

Chef's tip: If you find it difficult to remove the zest from the grater use
a pastry brush and brush down the grater on a slight angle, this seems to
work well.
