Cornish Game Hens step by step
-
Preheat oven to 350.
-
Rinse birds with cold water and place on baking tray.
-
To make stuffing, in mixing bowl rip bread into small cruton sized pieces. Chop celery and onion in small pieces. Mix. Add salt, pepper, and sage to taste. Mix..
-
Stuff game hens with stuffing.
-
Baste birds with melted butter.
-
Season birds like you would a whole chicken or turkey. I usually season with garlic powder, season salt, black pepper, and red chili powder. Or whatever's in the cupboard :).
-
Cook birds for 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes if no stuffing. If birds are stuffed increase cooking time 15-20 minutes. Baste birds with melted butter 2-3 more times while cooking, roughly every 20-30 minutes. When juices run clear at bottom of bird its done, or just use a cooking thermometer..
-
Cut whole birds in half with a large and sharp knife. Serve half a bird with your favorite side dishes. I always prefer mashed potatoes and gravy made from the birds drippings and any veggie of choice. Enjoy!!.
