 Wish I could show you all the picture of this dish. The quail are a


 gorgeous deep reddish orange in color. I imagine that this would be a great


 recipe to use on chicken wings. And they'd definitely be hot++ check out


 the amount of sambal oelek, the Indonesian condiment made of crushed bird's


 eye chilies, garlic and vinegar. I'm making this tomorrow with a hacked up


 chicken and a double recipe of the marinade. I'll start marinating it


 tonight. It would probably be great with a game hen as well. Stay tuned++a


 report will follow.


 


 1: Cut quail in half through centres. Combine garlic, sambal oelek, honey,


 sauce, sugar and oil in bowl, add quail, stir well; cover, refrigerate


 overnight.


 


 2: Just before serving, place quail on rack over baking dish, bake in


 moderate oven for 15 minutes, increase temperature to hot, cook further 10


 minutes or until quail are crisp and tender.


 


 Makes 4 servings.


 


 Quail can be prepared 2 days ahead.


 


 Storage: Covered, in refrigerator. Freeze: Uncooked quail suitable.


 Microwave: Not suitable.
