Ingredients
2 cup dried bread cubes
1/2 cup celery; sliced
1/4 cup onion; chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon marjoram leaves
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup margarine
2 tablespoon white wine or chicken broth
4 cornish game hens
----APRICOT GLAZE----
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 teaspoon marjoram leaves
Cooking Directions:
Heat oven to 375. In a medium bowl, stir together all stuffing ingredients EXCEPT preserves, margarine and wine.
In a small saucepan, melt preserves, margarine, and wine or chicken broth. Stir into stuffing mix.
Stuff hens, and secure opening with a toothpick. Tuck under wings of hen. Place hens, breast side up, in a roasting pan.
Bake for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, in a pan, combine all the glaze ingredients, cooking over medium heat till melted, about 2-3 minutes. Brush hens with half the sauce after about 1 hour of cooking. Continue to brush sauce on, every 15 - 20 minutes.
Continue baking hens for 40 - 50 minutes, or until hens are fork tender. Loosely cover with foil if hens are browning too quickly. Per serving: 1849 Calories; 111g Fat (55% calories from fat); 155g Protein; 53g Carbohydrate; 496 mg Cholesterol; 2519mg Sodium
NOTES : You may leave out the stuffing, but this would probably decrease the baking time. Recipe by: Janet Baker, Eat-L poultry
