Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup dried fruit bits
  • 1/2 cup water
  • cornish hens:
  • 4 cornish game hens (20 to 24 oz each)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp honey

Directions:

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and celery; cook and stir until tender. Stir in the bread, fruit bits, water and allspice; cover and cook for 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
  2. Loosely stuff hens with stuffing. Tuck wings under hens; tie drumsticks together. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place breast side up on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Combine butter and honey; drizzle over hens.
  3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 180° for hens and 165° for stuffing, basting occasionally with pan drippings. Cover loosely with foil if hens brown too quickly. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Yield: 4 servings.
