  • 1 teaspoon Lime Zest
  • 1/3 cup Lime Juice
  • 8 tablespoons Sugar Free Apricot Preserves
  • 3 bird wholes Chicken Meat (Cornish Game Hens)
  • 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce Tamari

  1. Season hens with salt and pepper to taste; set aside.  Zest and juice the lime.
  2. 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.
