Honey Herb Cornish Game Hens

    I've made this dish 4 times, and it tastes good each time. The only change I've made is to use more lemon juice & honey. I like to keep my hens moist, so I baste them often. I've served this with potatoes, rice, and braised red cabbage. This dish goes well with almost any side. Thank you for this great recipe!

    Honey-Herb Cornish Game Hens,I’ve made this dish 4 times, and it tastes good each time. The only change I’ve made is to use more lemon juice & honey. I like to keep my hens moist, so I baste them often. I’ve served this with potatoes, rice, and braised red cabbage. This dish goes well with almost any side. Thank you for this great recipe!,I love cornish hens more so than making a whole chicken. I think they take on flavor a lot easier than a whole chicken does. And this recipe definitely gave a lot of flavor to the cornish hens. Both my husband and I enjoyed this recipe very much. Thanks for sharing!
