Preparation
Step 1
Remove and discard giblets and necks from hens. Split hens lengthwise. Rinse halves under cold running water; drain well and pat dry with paper toweling. Place in large plastic food storage bag.
Combine teriyaki marinade & sauce, lemon peel and juice, garlic and pepper; pour over hens. Press air out of bag; close top securely. Turn bag over several times to coat halves. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight, turning bag over occasionally.
Cook hens on grill 5 to 7 inches from hot coals. Cook 45 to 50 minutes, or until hens are no longer pink in center. (Or, broil about 7 inches from heat 50 minutes, turning over frequently.) Remove to serving platter and immediately sprinkle cilantro over hens.
