Cornish Game Hens W.Peach-Lime Glaze - Atkins Recipe
Ingredients:
3 each cornish game hens, split in half 1/2 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper 1/2 cup steeles sugar-free peach champagne, jam 1/3 cup fresh lime juice 1 tsp lime rind, grated 3 clove garlic, pushed through a press 3 tbsp soy sauce 1/2 pkt sugar substitute
Instructions:
A brief marinating time tenderizes these little birds and imparts a sweet-tart flavor. Removing the backbone ensures shorter grilling time and more even cooking.
1. With a sharp butcher's knife, remove backbones from hen halves. Rinse and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. In a large bowl, mix jam, lime juice, lime rind, garlic, soy sauce and sugar substitute. Add hens, toss to coat. Marinate 1 hour, turning occasionally.
3. Prepare a medium grill. Remove hens from glaze; reserve glaze. Place hens skin side down on greased grill grate, not directly over heat. Cover and cook 25 minutes, until no longer pink inside and juices run clear.
4. Put reserved glaze in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Boil for 1 full minute. Place hens directly over heat source for 5 minutes, and brush with glaze for a crispy skin.

The bird of wisdom flies low, and seeks her food under hedges; the eagle himself would be starved if he always soared aloft and against
the sun. --------
