Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 cup lemon juice
- •0.5 cup olive oil
- •0.5 medium onion, chopped
- •2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- •1 tablespoon white wine
- •1 tablespoon pepper
- •1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- •1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- •1 teaspoon celery salt
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •4 (1 1/2 pound) Cornish game hens
Instructions
- Whisk lemon juice, oil, onion, garlic, wine, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, celery salt, and salt together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add game hens and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
- When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove hens from marinade and shake off excess. Save remaining marinade for basting.
- Cook hens on the preheated grill, brushing occasionally with remaining marinade, until no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Discard any unused marinade.
