Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the duck breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the duck breasts skin-side down into the skillet, searing until the skin is crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Flip the duck breasts over and sear the other side for another 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the duck breasts to a baking dish and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Let the duck rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
While the duck is cooking, prepare the Paleo hoisin sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the coconut aminos, almond butter, coconut vinegar, raw honey, ginger powder, and garlic powder until smooth.
Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, setting them aside for wraps.
Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips. Slice the green onions finely.
Assemble the wraps: place a lettuce leaf as a base, add slices of duck, cucumber, carrot, and a sprinkle of green onions.
Drizzle the Paleo hoisin sauce over the ingredients in the wrap.
Roll up the lettuce wrap and serve immediately for best taste and texture.
