Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the duck breasts dry with paper towels. Score the skin with a sharp knife, being careful not to cut into the meat.
Season the duck breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Place the duck breasts skin-side down in a cold oven-safe skillet. Gradually heat the skillet over medium-low heat to render the fat, about 8-10 minutes.
Once the skin is crispy and golden brown, transfer the skillet to the oven. Cook for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the duck reaches your desired doneness.
While the duck is cooking, wash and prepare the vegetables. Slice the cucumber into thin strips and chop the spring onions.
Separate the iceberg lettuce leaves and rinse them. These will be used as wraps.
To make the sugar-free hoisin sauce, start by blooming the gelatin in 2 tablespoons of cold water and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the tamari or soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, apple cider vinegar, water, and tahini.
Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved. Allow the sauce to cool slightly.
Once the duck is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Assemble each wrap by layering lettuce leaves with slices of duck, cucumber, and spring onions. Drizzle with the sugar-free hoisin sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free crispy duck wraps!
