TUSCAN GRILLED CORNISH HENS
Steps:
- Sprinkle the Cornish hens with 1 teaspoon salt on each side.
- Combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a ceramic or glass dish just large enough to hold the flattened hens. Add the hens, and turn to coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, turning once or twice.
- When ready to grill, prepare a hot charcoal fire on one side of a grill (or turn a gas grill on low heat). Spread 1/4 of the coals across the other side of the grill. Place the hens on the cooler side skin-side up and weigh them down with a gratin dish with a foil-wrapped brick inside.
- Cook for 12 minutes, until the underside is golden brown. Turn the hens skin-side down, weigh them down again, and cook for another 12 minutes until the skin is golden brown and the hens are cooked through.
- Place the lemon halves on the cool side of the grill, cut-side down, for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Remove the Cornish hens and lemons to a plate or cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the hens in half, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve with the grilled lemon halves.

GRILLED CORNISH HENS
I like experimenting with different foods and adapting them to my own tastes. These hens are one of my specialties, an entree I concocted by combining a few different recipes. The moist meat has a pleasant grilled flavor that's accented with cloves and ginger.-David Baruch, Weston, Florida

GRILLED CORNISH GAME HENS WITH PESTO
Another fabulous recipe from Mary Nell Reck's weekly cooking lesson in the Houston Post. This one came out in February of 1989 and is a recipe from Johnny Carrabba, chef and owner of Carrabba's Restaurant here in Houston, way back when there was only the original restaurant. The Cornish hens may be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to grill.

Steps:
- Cut off the wing tips of the Cornish hens.
- Split open, cutting through the breast.
- Split in half through the back by cutting on both sides of the backbone.
- Using a small, sharp knife, remove the ribs and breastbone.
- These bones are easily removed and doing so makes it much easier for the diner to enjoy.
- Slip your fingers under the skin to separate it from the meat. Go in from the side which was next to the backbone. This is where the pesto stuffing goes. Set hen aside while preparing the pesto.
- Give the garlic cloves a firm whack with the side of a knife to remove the skin.
- Crush to release the oils then place in a food processor along with the parmesan cheese, pine nuts, basil leaves,parsley,salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Process until finely ground.
- Slowly add just enough olive oil to make the pesto pasty and moist, but not runny.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the stuffing under the skin of each half and evenly distribute it by applying gentle pressure to the skin.
- Any remaining pesto can be placed in a covered container and refrigerated for several weeks. Because the parsley has been added it will retain its bright green color.
- Sprinkle the skin with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Lightly drizzle with olive oil.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Close to serving time, place about six pieces of pecan or oak chips in water to soak.
- Get a charcoal fire ready to grill on or turn on the gas grill if using that.
- Place the wet wood chips on the coals/ burner to create flavorful smoke.
- Grill the stuffed hens until richly browned on both sides, about 10-20 minutes in all, depending on size of hen.
- Serve immediately.
