<human>:  What is the best way to cook a duck?
<bot>: The best way to cook a duck is to roast it in the oven. Heat the oven to 375 degrees and cook the duck for about 40 minutes per pound, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees. To get crispy skin, be sure to score the skin with a sharp knife before cooking.
