Step 1

Mix each of the sauces into a small bowl along with the ginger and zest.

Step 3

Pour sauce over hens and cover for about 3 hours, basting and turning hens every so often.

Serve! I paired this with a basmati rice I'd sauteed in garlic and butter before cooking in chicken broth. Then I added scallions to the rice to finish.
