My cousin and her husband grilled these one night for an appetizer and they were delicious. Whoever had cleaned these dove had just popped out the breasts , so there were no little legs and no skin. I prefer whole birds because I think they stay more tender and I love to eat the little legs, but either way will work. You could use quail for this recipe too, I bet. Ingredients:
1/2 cup soy sauce |
1/2 cup honey |
1/2 cup italian dressing |
12 doves |
6 slices bacon, cut in half |
3 -6 whole pickled jalapeno peppers, depending on heat level,if real hot,3 quartered lengthwise,if tolerable,6 halved |
12 toothpicks |
Directions:
1. Marinate the doves overnight or at least for several hours.
2. Take each dove, line a jalapeno up against it and wrap the piece of bacon around it.
3. Secure with a toothpick.
4. Repeat.
5. Grill the breasts over medium heat, turning constantly to ensure even grilling.
6. Baste in the last few minutes with the remaining marinade.
7. Cook until the bacon is crispy.
