Place duck pieces in casserole, mix well and bring to a boil. Cover casserole and place in oven for 1½ hours. Remove casserole from oven, skim fat and remove duck pieces. Add chicken stock, place over medium heat and bring to a boil.

Arrange duck pieces on a platter, cover with spoonfuls of sauce and serve.
