- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Place the duck skin-side up. Using a sharp knife, score four 1/4-inch-deep cuts across the skin at a 45 degree angle. Sprinkle 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper over the meat side of each duck breast.
- Heat a well-seasoned skillet or possibly nonstick pan over high heat. When pan is warm, add in duck breasts, skin side down, and cook for 5 min, or possibly till skin is brown and crispy. Flip and cook for 2 more min. If you are unfamiliar with duck breasts, do not be put off by their unusual look. The fat-to-meat proportions reverse themselves when cooked, as much of the fat is rendered and the meat expands.
- Remove pan from heat (save the drippings) and transfer duck breasts, skin side up, to a cooking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Bake on the top rack of the oven for 6 min.
- Carefully throw away all but two Tbsp. of duck drippings from the pan. Return pan to medium heat and add in shallot. Stir occasionally for 3 min, or possibly till shallot begins to turn golden brown. Add in Cassis to the pan and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen up the browned bits left by the duck. Add in jam, vinegar, and remaining tsp. of black pepper, and stir occasionally for 3 min. Remove from heat.
- Remove duck from the oven and slice each breast at a 45 degree angle into 1/4-inch-thick strips (properly cooked duck should resemble medium-rare steak). Arrange in a fanlike pattern on a warmed plates and spoon Cassis compote overtop. Serve immediately.
- The best ducks are Moscovy ducks, available from specialty butchers, but any duck will work. Creme de Cassis is a French liqueur made from black currants. Despite the name, it is a syrupy, crimson-colored liqueur.
