This is a good marinade for duck breasts or split cornish hens.

3 c. fresh raspberries
1 c. raspberry vinegar
3/4 c. olive oil
2 tbsp. fresh thyme

Combine the raspberries and vinegar in a saucepan. Cook for a minute at boiling and remove from heat. Stir in the oil and add thyme and freshly ground pepper. Cool to room temperature. Pour the marinade over the boned duck breasts or split cornish hens. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator turning a few times.

Grill the duck over the hot coals basting occasionally with the marinade for about 10 minutes. Makes enough for 6.
