Start by preparing the duck breast. Score the skin of the duck in a crisscross pattern without cutting into the meat. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Place the duck skin-side down in the pan and cook for about 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip and cook the other side for an additional 4 minutes. Remove from the pan and let it rest.
While the duck is cooking, prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the gluten-free soy sauce, gluten-free hoisin sauce, sesame oil, minced ginger, and minced garlic to make the sauce. Set aside.
Slice the red bell pepper and carrot into thin strips. Chop the spring onions into small rounds and roughly chop the cilantro.
In the same frying pan used for the duck, remove excess fat leaving about a tablespoon in the pan. Add the sliced red bell pepper and carrot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the spring onions and pour the prepared sauce into the pan, stirring to combine everything.
Slice the cooked duck breast into thin slices and add back into the pan, mixing with the vegetables and sauce briefly.
Add the cooked rice noodles to the pan and gently toss to coat the noodles with the sauce and combine all ingredients.
Serve the gluten-free duck noodles warm, garnished with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
