1 To grill the hens evenly, you will want to flatten the birds in a method called spatchcocking. To do this, start by trimming off any excess fat and the wingtips from the game hens. Turn the birds over and use kitchen shears to cut out their backbones. Use your hands to flatten the birds.
up vote -2 down vote. Phenols are the aromatic organic compounds that have a hydroxyl group directly connected to a ring and alcohols are the non-aromatic compounds that have a hydroxyl group connected to the main chain. The difference is that one is cyclic and one is non-cyclic. phenol consists of an $\ce{-OH}$ bonded to an unsaturated $sp^2$ carbon. Thus, it does not qualify as an alcohol. One can classify it as an enol, though. Really, to me, the classification doesn't matter. Classifications are artificial, what is important is how well the properties fit in the classification.
Red wine polyphenols are a complex mixture of flavonoids (such as anthocyanins and flavan-3-ols) and nonflavonoids (such as resveratrol, cinnamates and gallic acid). Flavan-3-ols are the most abundant, with polymeric procyanidins (condensed tannins) composing up to 50% of the total phenolic constituents [29].
