INSTRUCTIONS
Slightly sweet, slightly sally, this Asian marinade caramelizes on the
grill. Two Cornish game hens may be substituted for squab. Grill the split
hens for 7 to 8 minutes per side.
Place each squab on its back on a cutting board. With a sharp knife or
poultry shears, split the bird in half through the breast bone. Cut out the
backbone.
In a shallow, non aluminum dish, mix remaining ingredients. Add the squab,
turn to coat evenly, cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours or
over night. Drain the squab and reserve the marinade. Prepare a charcoal
or gas grill and grill the squab for about 6 minutes. Baste once with
reserved marinade; discard marinade. Turn and cook for about 6 minutes
longer, or until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
