Repeat with remaining 6 pieces and remove to same plate. Drain oil and add apple slices. Cook until softened and light brown (about 1 minute). Add wine and chicken stock and bring to a boil.

Place duck pieces into the stock and add cold butter. Simmer 10 minutes until all the duck is heated through. Sprinkle with chives and serve with Sauteed Chinese Eggplant as accompaniment.
