Cornish Hens with Orange Stuffing
|
 |
1 medium navel orange
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup chopped celery
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1-1/2 cups seasoned stuffing mix
1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel
4 to 5 tablespoons orange juice
1 Cornish game hen (20 ounces), halved
1 tablespoon honey, warmed
1 tablespoon water
Peel and section orange; cut each section into quarters and set aside. In a
skillet, saute onions and celery in oil until crisp-tender. In a bowl, combine
the onion mixture, stuffing mix, orange peel and reserved orange sections. Stir
in enough orange juice to just moisten stuffing mixture. Arrange stuffing in
two mounds in a greased shallow 2-qt. baking dish. Place Cornish game hen halves
skin side up over stuffing. Cover and bake at 375° for 30 minutes. Uncover;
bake for 15 minutes. Combine honey and water. Brush over hens. Bake 10-15 minutes
longer or until juices run clear.
Yield: 2 servings.
