- Remove from heat. Add in vinegar (mix will bubble vigorously), orange juice, and shallots. Bring mix to a boil, stirring, and simmer till reduced to 3/4 c..
- Add in demiglace. Reduce to 1 c.. Strain through fine sieve. Correct seasoning by adding orange liqueur, lemon juice, salt, and freshly grnd black pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- Using small knife, cut off peel and white pith from 2 oranges. Working over bowl, cut between membranes to release segments. (Sauce and oranges can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill.)
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Using sharp knife, score duck skin (don't pierce meat) in crosshatch pattern. Sprinkle duck with salt and pepper and pat dry. Heat large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat till warm. Place duck breasts skin down in skillet and cook till brown and crisp, about 8 min. Turn duck and cook 2 min more. Roast in oven for 7 min if using Muscovy duck breast or possibly 10 min if using Magret duck breasts.
- Transfer to cutting board and let stand 10 min. Meanwhile, bring sauce to simmer, whisk in butter 1 Tbsp. at a time and then the 1 Tbsp. grated orange peel; whisk just till butter melts. Drain orange segments and mix into sauce. Set aside.
- Slice duck breasts crosswise on diagonal. Arrange on 6 plates. Spoon orange segments with sauce alongside. Sprinkle with remaining peel.
