Ingredients
- 1 package Tyson Cornish Hens 2 hens per package
- 1 cup Kikkoman Orange Sauce
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1 TB rice vinegar
- 1 TB chili paste
- 2 TB vegetable oil
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- Build a Fire: On a charcoal grill (what we used), build a fire as you normally would. Once it has been well established, move the majority of the burning coals to one side, which will be the "hot" side. Leave a few coals on the other half of the grill; these will create less heat and be the "cool" side.
- Prep the Tyson Cornish Hens: Using kitchen shears, cut each bird in half and remove wings.
- Cover all the meat (including wings) in vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Massage the oil and seasoning into the meat to make sure it is evenly coated.
- Create the Glaze: In a medium mixing bowl, add Kikkoman Orange Sauce, Orange Juice, Vinegar, and Chili Paste. Whisk together until well combined.
- On the Grill: Place the Tyson Cornish Hens on the "hot" side of the grill and flip until each side of the Cornish Hens have the desired amount of charring. Once you've got some beautiful grill marks on your birds, move them to the "cool" side, baste heavily with the Sweet Chili Glaze, and cover. Cook for 20 minutes, basting occasionally.
