Provided by Genevieve Morrison

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 Cornish game hens
7 fresh sage leaves
6 garlic cloves (- large)
4 tbsp. butter (- unsalted)
2 tbsp. olive oil
½ lemon (- juice)
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
4 cups homemade bread stuffing

Steps:

  • Make your bread stuffing with Anjou pear, baby bella mushroom and red onion first, set aside and preheat oven to 450.
  • Chop 5-7 leaves of fresh sage and 6 cloves of garlic into pieces small enough to mix evenly in a food processor. you don't have to mince.
  • In a food processor, add 4 tbsp. of softened unsalted butter, 2 tbsp. olive oil, juice from half a lemon and the chopped garlic and sage. Process till creamy with small flecks of sage and garlic. Set aside.
  • Pat 5 Cornish game hens with paper towel, and place them in a 4 quart baking pan or pyrex. Cut about 1½ feet of baking string and tie their legs close to their body by wrapping each leg first, then securing them together with a bow.
  • Fill each cavity with stuffing, but don't over-stuff. Leave most of the stuffing to serve as a side dish.
  • Lift the skin of the breast and spoon in some of the garlic-sage butter. Make sure it's nicely distributed under the skin (It helps to use a spoon to separate it first).
  • Roll up your sleeves and give the hens a luxurious massage with the garlic-sage butter. Make sure to cover every part of them, including between the legs and breast.
  • Sprinkle them with 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper, making sure to evenly distribute all over the hens. Bake for 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer shows 165 F (74 C) in the thickest parts, like the thigh and breast. Allow to sit for 15 minutes under tin foil before serving.
