Steps

1. Score the skin of the duck breast in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. 2. Season both sides of the duck breast with salt and pepper. 3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the duck breast skin-side down in the dry pan. Cook for 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. 4. Flip the duck breast and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare. 5. Remove the duck from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. 6. In the same skillet, add olive oil and blackberries. Cook for 2 minutes until they begin to soften. 7. Add honey, chicken broth, and balsamic vinegar to the skillet. Stir and simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. 8. Serve the sliced duck breast drizzled with the blackberry sauce.
