Posting for ZWT6, a recipe from Steven Raichlen's "The BBQ Bible". Heres a dish for the poultry lovers that's fairly bursting with Moroccan spice flavors. Cumin, ginger, paprika and cilantro combine to transform a commonplace bird into a flame-cooked triumph. Time doesn't include the marinating time.

MOROCCAN-STYLE CORNISH HENS WITH COUSCOUS
Couscous with onions and raisins and seasoned with cumin delivers many levels of flavor with rich little Cornish hens, massaged with spices. How many birds you need for four guests will be determined by their size (the birds' and perhaps the guests', too). Whether you grill or roast them depends on your mood, your kitchen and the weather. The couscous could even be stuffing for smaller hens, one per person, roasted at 375 degrees for about 50 minutes.

- Sauté onions in remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat until golden. Stir in raisins and remaining cumin and cook until onions are lightly browned. Fold in cooked couscous and season with salt and pepper.
