Cooking Directions
-
Whisk lemon juice, oil, onion, garlic, wine, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, celery salt, and salt together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add game hens and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
-
When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Remove hens from marinade and shake off excess. Save remaining marinade for basting.
-
Cook hens on the preheated grill, brushing occasionally with remaining marinade, until no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Discard any unused marinade.
