In a large bowl, combine the ground duck meat, finely chopped shallot, minced garlic, chopped fresh thyme and rosemary, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are well combined.
Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties, making sure they are even in thickness for uniform cooking.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the duck patties into the skillet.
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown on the outside and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Lower the heat if necessary to avoid burning.
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the toppings. Rinse and dry the romaine lettuce leaves, slice the tomato and red onion, and cut the avocado into slices.
Once the burgers are cooked, remove them from the heat and let them rest for a minute or two.
Assemble the burgers by using a large romaine lettuce leaf as the base, place the cooked duck patty on top, and add slices of tomato, red onion, and avocado.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Savory Duck Burger!
