We have enjoyed eating at Zafron’s since they opened. I always order the Cornish hens. Would they be willing to share the recipe for their marinade?

Joojeh Kabob is an Iranian dish of grilled chicken, said to be one of the most popular dishes of that country. At Zafron’s, it’s on the dinner menu and the marinade is used with Cornish hens. In our photo, the hens are served with the restaurant’s popular Jeweled Rice and grilled plum tomatoes.
