4. Turn oven to grill setting. Place quails on baking tray. Use the marinade to brush both sides of each quail, add some salt in the cavity, transfer them to a shallow roasting tray (or just aluminium foil). Grill the quail in the oven, uncovered, until cooked through, 8 - 10 min (8 quails took 12min). Remove from heat and let rest for 10 minutes before serving. In the meantime, simmer the marinade leftover in a small pan as an optional extra sauce. *bacons can be oven cooked on the side of the roasting tray to add extra flavour to the quail roast.
