Orange & Rosemary Grilled Doves
What you need:
18 to 20 whole doves plucked
2 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups fresh orange juice (about 4 large oranges)
zest of 1 orange
1 tablespoon rosemary, chopped
2 tablespoons honey
1/8 teaspoon pepper
pinch salt
What to do:
Prepare grill. Brush doves with oil and season with salt and pepper. While the grill is heating, prepare the glaze by combining the orange juice, orange zest, rosemary, honey, pinch of salt, and pepper. Bring to a good simmer over heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until it has reduced and thickened.
When the grill is ready, place the doves on the grill, breast up. Grill for three minutes with the cover on. Remove cover, do not flip, and brush the glaze on each bird. Cover and grill for 9 to 11 minutes depending on how well cooked you like your dove.
Remove the doves to a serving platter.
Yummmm… sounds like a new Christmas holiday meal tradition is in the makings.
