How to Calculate Atkins Net CarbsINGREDIENTS
- 3 bird whole Chicken Meat (Cornish Game Hens)
- 1 tsp Lime Zest
- 1/3 cup Lime Juice
- 8 tbsp Sugar Free Apricot Preserves
- 3 tbsp Soy Sauce Tamari
- 2 tsp Garlic
DIRECTIONS
- Season hens with salt and pepper to taste; set aside. Zest and juice the lime.
- In a large bowl, mix jam, juice, soy sauce, minced garlic and 1 tsp zest. Add hens; toss to coat. Marinate 1 hour, turning occasionally. 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.
- Meanwhile, heat reserved glaze in a small saucepan over high heat; boil for 1 full minute. During last 5 minutes of cooking time, brush hens with glaze and cook directly over heat source for a crispy skin. Serve with remaining glaze.
