- 1 pepper, to taste
- 1 lb fingerling potato

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400˚F(200˚C).

- Score the duck skin with sharp knife, making sure to not cut into fresh.

- Combine red wine, chicken stock, orange juice, and honey and reduce by half over medium heat.
- Fry the potatoes with remaining duck fat in the pan, until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and rosemary.
