Good marinade worked well with chicken kabobs
Really not worth the trouble: rather bland
Delicious way to serve poussins. Mine were cooked in about a half hour. Citrus flavor excellent. I didn't have oj so for 2 poussins I bought one orange, pureed half of it, and squeezed the other half. Lovely spring meal.
