Dressed-Up Cornish Hen

1 Cornish game hen (20 ounces)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Place Cornish hen in a large resealable plastic bag. In a small bowl, combine the
remaining ingredients. Pour half of the marinade over hen; seal bag and
refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning several times. Refrigerate
remaining marinade for basting. Drain and discard marinade. Place hen, skin
side up, in a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for
30 minutes. Baste with reserved marinade. Bake 20-30 minutes longer or until a
meat thermometer reads 180°. Cut in half to serve.

Yield: 2 servings.
