  1. Place duck breasts in a bowl. Add onion, garlic, adobo, peppercorns, and thyme, mix well. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

  2. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  3. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven. Add tomato paste to hot oil, stir until bubbling, about 1 minute. Pour duck breast mixture into the Dutch oven. Add bell pepper. Cook until duck breasts are well browned, about 10 minutes per side.
