 |
6 Cornish game hens (20 ounces each)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup honey
SAUCE:
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cold water
Place hens on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Tie legs with kitchen string if
desired. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Combine the butter, orange juice and
honey; spoon over hens. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until a meat
thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear, basting every 15 minutes. In a
small saucepan, combine the orange juice, honey and vinegar. Combine cornstarch
and water until smooth; stir into orange juice mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and
stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Serve with hens.
