Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Sprinkle duck with salt. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the duck and cook until browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  4. Transfer the duck to a small baking dish and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 150°F, 8 to 12 minutes for medium, depending on the size of the breast.
  5. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest 5 minutes.
  6. While the duck is roasting, return the pan to medium-high heat.
  7. Add shallot and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  8. Add pomegranate juice and bring to a boil.
  9. Reduce heat to a simmer; cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes.
  10. Stir broth and cornstarch in a small bowl until the cornstarch dissolves.
  11. Add to the pan.
  12. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
  13. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce is thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
  14. When the duck has finished resting, pour any accumulated juices into the sauce and stir to combine.
  15. Thinly slice the duck; serve topped with the pomegranate sauce. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
