Ingredients
3 Cornish game hens - (abt 2 lbs ea), split in halves
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1/2 cup Steeles sugar-free peach champagne
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1 tsp grated lime rind
3 garlic cloves, pressed
3 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 packet sugar substitute
Directions
With a sharp butcher's knife, remove backbones from hen halves. Rinse and
pat dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
In a large bowl, mix jam, lime juice, lime rind, garlic, soy sauce and
sugar substitute. 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.
Put reserved glaze in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Boil for 1 full
minute. Place hens directly over heat source for 5 minutes, and brush with
glaze for a crispy skin.

"A brief marinating time tenderizes these little birds and imparts a
sweet-tart flavor. Removing the backbone ensures shorter grilling
time and more even cooking."
