Cornish Game Hens with Peach Lime Glaze

3 Cornish game hens, split in half
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup peach jam
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon grated lime rind
3 garlic cloves, pressed
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 packet sugar substitute

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.

6 servings.
