BBQ Cornish Hens

This is a recipe I can up with when I first started cooking. It became a very demanded dish by friends and family. Inspiration is thanks to Sam Choy whom I adored as I began cooking. This Cornish hen gives a wonderful citrus flavor throughout and stays moist and juicy. The baste helps give it a nice sweet salty finish. I hope you enjoy.  Don't forget to see my Italian shrimp recipe and you can cook it as pupus while you wait for the main dish.
