I found this recipe on a recipe card at Walmart but it didn't have flavor and it had mushrooms. Most people I know hate mushrooms and need flavor so, I cut out the mushrooms and added some flavor.. Ingredients:
6 ounces bulk sausage |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
2 tablespoons chopped celery |
1 cup herb stuffing mix |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/2 teaspoon sage |
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
salt and pepper, to taste |
nonstick cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F; spray baking pan with nonstick spray.
2. Remove and discard giblets.
3. Rinse and pat dry inside and out of the hens.
4. Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper; set aside.
5. In a medium skillet, cook and stir sausage over a medium heat until no longer pink.
6. Add the onion and celery.
7. Cook until tender, about five minutes.
8. Add stuffing mix, 1/3 cup of water, and 1/2 teaspoons of sage; mix well.
9. Spoon warm filling evenly into the inside of the hens.
10. Blend the 1/4 teaspoons of poultry seasoning with the butter.
11. Rub evenly over the hens.
12. Place the hens in a baking pan.
13. Roast for 1 hour 30 minutes or until no longer pink and thermometer says 180°F Let stand for five minutes before serving.
14. With a knife, split each hen length wise through the center of the breast and through the backbone, cutting just to one side of the backbone.
