Comment préparer Game Hens With Cardamom And Oregano

  1. Lightly crush 2 cardamom pods to release the husks.
  2. Using a mortar and pestle, crush the cardamom seeds until fragrant.
  3. Add 2 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon dried oregano to the mortar.
  4. Grind the mixture until well combined.
  5. Stir in 3 tablespoons olive oil and continue grinding until a smooth paste forms.
  6. Rub ¾ of the paste all over 2 game hens (about 1 pound each).
  7. Mix the remaining paste with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Pour over the hens, reserving a tablespoon for basting.
  8. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or up to 8 hours, turning occasionally.
  9. Preheat grill to high heat.
  10. Season the hens generously with freshly ground black pepper.
  11. Place hens on the hot grill, searing until the skin is golden brown and slightly crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Watch for flare-ups and adjust accordingly.
  12. Move the hens to a cooler part of the grill (indirect heat).
  13. Continue grilling, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), about 15-20 minutes.
  14. Remove from grill, let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
