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.
Polyphenols have recently been termed âlifespan essentialsâ, and they actively work in the body to prevent certain disease mechanisms from occurring. Polyphenols are antioxidants from plant foods that work in the body to enhance health in complex ways, and as such they are not simply antioxidants. Choose caffeinated tea and coffee, as the decaffeination process may remove polyphenols along with the caffeine. 2  Drink red wine and beer instead of other alcoholic beverages. 3  Hard liquor is distilled so essentially does not contain polyphenols.
