Pan-Seared Duck Leg with Crispy Skin (Medium)

I bought some duck legs from Costco and was looking for a way to cook them. The most common recipe is Duck Confit, but it requires a ton of oil.

So, I asked an AI for a flavorful recipe that uses minimal oil. The one I got was surprisingly simple and turned out delicious! The method is very similar to how you'd cook a duck breast.

1. Step 1: Prepare the Duck Leg (5 minutes):
2. Step 2: Initial Skin Searing (10-15 minutes):
3. Step 3: Sear the Meat Side (2-3 minutes):
4. Step 4: Finish Cooking in Pan (3-5 minutes for medium-rare):
5. Step 5: Resting the Duck (10 minutes):
6. Step 6: Serve:

To make the duck leg more well-done, I'll increase time for step2.
