For Hoisin Glaze
Directions
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Season birds with oil, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix the glaze ingredients.
Grill quail starting breast down for 7-8 minutes. To get good grill marks start the quail at an angle to the grill grates then rotate 90 degrees halfway through cooking. Flip the quail. Brush or spoon the glaze on each bird and grill another 5-7 minutes. When done the breast will be plump and firm to the touch.
Serve with additional glaze drizzled over the top or on the side for dipping.
