GRILLED QUAIL SALAD

Steps:

• TO MAKE THE MARINADE: In a large bowl, stir together the red onion, chile, garlic, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, lime zest and juice, and the 1 cup olive oil.
• Submerge the quail in the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours. If you are in a rush, marinate the quail for 1 hour at room temperature.
• TO GRILL THE CORN AND QUAIL: In a covered grill, prepare a hot fire using hardwood (Josh prefers pecan) or fruitwood. Pull back the husk from the corn, remove the silk, and rewrap the ear with the husk. Arrange the corn around the edges of the fire, close the lid, and let them smoke for about 15 minutes. Transfer them to a plate and cover with a clean dish cloth. Remove the quail from the marinade, drain on paper towels, and season all over with salt and pepper. When the fire has cooked down to hot coals, place the quail over the hottest part of grill, close the lid, and cook them until the quail's interior is reddish pink and the flesh is firm to the touch, about 20 minutes.
• TO MAKE THE VINAIGRETTE: In a bowl, whisk together the onion, chile, lime zest and juice, mustard, the 1/2 cup olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the blackberries. Season with more pepper or salt, to taste. Gently stir in the remaining berries.
• TO MAKE THE SALAD: Put the greens in a large bowl. Cut the corn kernels from the cobs. Toss the corn and cheese with the greens and vinaigrette. Arrange the quail on top of the salad. Let guests serve themselves, but gently remind them to take just 1 quail per person.
• Grilling corn in its husk gives the kernels a golden color and a deeply sweet flavor. But if you prefer, grill them shucked, about 2 minutes per side, just until the kernels begin to blacken and blister.
• Both the quail and the corn can be grilled at least 24 hours in advance and refrigerated. The vinaigrette can also be made 1 to 2 days ahead and refrigerated. Bring the quail to room temperature before serving.

GRILLED QUAIL SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the orange and lemon juice, bay leaves, crushed lemongrass, star anise, molasses, soy, chili, garlic and ginger and marinate the quail for several hours, or overnight, covered, in the refrigerator.
• To make the dressing for the salad, combine the mustard, vinegar and honey and whisk in the olive oil to create an emulsion.
• Remove the quail from the marinade and grill over an outdoor barbecue for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or cook over medium heat in a cast iron skillet for 10 to 12 minutes, turning frequently to avoid burning. Remove from the heat and let the quail rest for several minutes before serving.
• Toss the salad greens with the dressing and divide among 4 plates. Top each salad with 2 quail for a main course and garnish each with several slices of papaya and mango and sprinkle with toasted pumpkin seeds.

• Gently press with the fingers on either side of the breast bones to make the birds lie flat. Carefully cut away breast bones, using the knife tip.
• Rub quail evenly on both sides with the mustard and oil. Smear them with the garlic, thyme, peppercorns and salt. Put the quail in a bowl and let stand until ready to use.
• When ready to cook quail, preheat a charcoal grill or the oven broiler to high.
• Arrange quail skin side down and flat on the charcoal grill or, if the broiler is to be used, place a rack on a baking dish and arrange the quail skin side up. Grill about 5 minutes on one side and turn. Cook 3 to 5 minutes longer.
• For the broiler, place quail about 4 inches from heat source. Broil about 4 minutes and turn. Broil about 3 to 5 minutes more.
