Shrimp in Spicy Lime Sauce

From Mark Bittman in The New York Times. “This recreation of a Cambodian dish may not be entirely authentic, but it is really good, a striking balance of mildly sweet and mouth-puckeringly sour. And if you start with peeled shrimp, it is also ridiculously fast. Let the lime-and-sugar mixture cook until it is syrupy; this won’t take long, about three minutes, but it will guarantee that the liquid coats the shrimp nicely.”

BBQ Jalapeno Cornish Game Hens

I think this one is from Sunset Magazine but I’m not sure. Where ever it was it’s one of the all time greats. If you make your own jelly you can control the heat, cut back on the Jalapenos and replace them with Anaheims, make it as fiery or as mild as you chose. I’ve used this on Chicken Breasts and thighs and several times on thick cut Pork Chops, all were great.

Lime and Sesame Roasted Cornish Game Hens

From America’s Best Recipes 1996. Easy and very good. Toast the sesame seeds in your microwave in a shallow bowl on High for 2-3 minutes. Watch to make sure that they do not burn.
