Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Score the skin of each duck breast in a criss-cross pattern with a sharp knife, making sure not to cut into the meat. Season with a bit of black pepper.
Place the duck breasts skin-side down in a cold, oven-safe skillet. Cook over medium heat for 6-8 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip the duck breasts and sear the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Remove from oven and let the duck rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
While the duck is cooking, prepare the low sodium hoisin sauce by mixing the low sodium soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and ground ginger in a small bowl. Set aside.
Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips. Thinly slice the green onions and chop the cilantro.
Warm the whole wheat wraps in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side or in a microwave until pliable.
To assemble the wraps, spread a small amount of the homemade low sodium hoisin sauce onto each wrap. Layer the sliced duck, cucumber, carrot, green onions, and cilantro on top.
Roll the wraps tightly, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
