Juicy and flavorful
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I served this for Thanksgiving dinner and it was a huge hit. The smokiness taste from the grill and the fresh herbs are a... great combination. My only caution is the recommended cooking time did not fully cook the hens on our gas grill. The undercooked hens are going in the oven tomorrow to be another meal!Read more

Fresh and Tasty
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

What a treat after a long winter! The gremolata was bright and fresh. I couldn't find fresh chervil and used one clove of... garlic instead of 1/4 cup. It was very delicious and the game hens were juicy, too.Read more
