A delicious bbq quail with citrus dressing recipe.

Easy

Ingredients

  • 2 butterflied quails

  • 1/2 orange (segments and juice)

  • 1/2 lime (segments and juice)

  • 1 eschalot (finely diced)

  • Olive oil (for marinating)

  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

Method

  • Marinate the Quails: In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, and pepper. Add the butterflied quails, ensuring they are well-coated. Let them marinate while you prepare the rest of the dish.

  • Cook the Quails: Preheat a BBQ or skillet over medium heat. Cook each quail for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through.

  • Prepare the Dressing: While the quails are resting, assemble your dressing by mixing the citrus segments (both orange and blood orange), extra virgin olive oil, finely diced eschalot.

  • Serve: Plate the quails and drizzle the citrus dressing over them. Enjoy with a nice cold glass of wine.
