 Categories: Poultry
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      4    Cornish hens, about 1 lb
           Each, split in half for
           Broiling
           Salt & pepper
      2 tb Finely chopped ginger
      2 tb Dijon mustard
    1/2 ts Ground cumin
      1 tb Finely chopped garlic
      2 tb Fresh lemon juice
      3 tb Olive oil
      4 tb Chopped fresh cilantro
 
  Sprinkle hens with salt & pepper & put them in a baking dish large
  enough to hold the hens in one layer. Blend the ginger, mustard,
  cumin, garlic, lemon juice & oil with a wire whisk. Brush both sides
  of the hens with this mixture. Cover them with plastic wrap &
  marinate 3-4 hours in the refrigerator. Preheat broiler to high. Put
  the hen halves on broiler pan with high sides. They should be skin
  side up & should be placed about 6" from source of heat. Cook until
  skin is nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Turn the hens & continue
  cooking. Baste them, & continue turning & basting every 5 minutes
  until they are done, about 15 minutes longer. Serve with cilantro
  sprinkled over all.
