Source of Recipe


J.R. Labbe



List of Ingredients



• ¾ cup lemon juice
  
• ¾ cup soy sauce
  
• ¾ cup vegetable oil
  
• 1 tsp seasoned salt
  
• 1 onion, finely chopped
  
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  
• 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  
• 12 dove breasts
  






Instructions



1. Make marinade by mixing first 7 ingredients. Place dove breasts in large nonreactive pan (not aluminum or cast iron); add marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
   
   
2. Prepare grill and let coals burn down for about 30 minutes, to medium heat.
   
   
3. Remove doves from marinade. Place on grill and baste with marinade.
   Grill, turning once and basting again with marinade, for a total of 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how hot your coals are, the size of the breasts, and how you like your game cooked (if you have a meat thermometer, 125º F is medium-rare). You want them tender, but not dry; watch carefully to make sure they don't overcook.
   
   Serves 4 as an appetizer.
