Directions
Place hens in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow glass container.
Add remaining ingredients (up to 2 tablespoons ground ginger); seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Remove hens, reserving marinade.
Place hens in a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. disposable aluminum pan. Pour marinade over hens; cover pan.
Grill, covered, over medium-hot coals, basting frequently, for 35 to 40 minutes or until juices run clear and a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees.
Place hens directly over coals for the last 3 to 4 minutes of cooking
