I came up with this recipe when I was just a teenager and have made it quite often since then. Diane Widmer, Blue Island, Illinois Ingredients:
4 cornish game hens (20 to 24 ounces each) |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
salt and pepper |
1 cup ketchup |
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/3 cup cider vinegar |
1/4 cup water |
2 tablespoons steak sauce |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
Directions:
1. Rub Cornish hens with butter; sprinkle salt and pepper inside cavity and over skin. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Baste hens with sauce. Bake 45 minutes longer or until juices run clear and a meat thermometer reads 180°, basting frequently. Yield: 4 servings.
