Cornish Hen Glazed with Honey and Mustard Seed
22
4
2 larger cornish hens, cut in half,
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
or old fashioned mustard,
4 tablespoon honey,
1 tablespoon vegetable oil,
salt and pepper to taste.
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
or old fashioned mustard,
4 tablespoon honey,
1 tablespoon vegetable oil,
salt and pepper to taste.
Sear the hens in a frying pan with little oil and transfer them in a roasting pan. Season the cornish hens with salt and pepper to taste and cook them in a preheated oven at 425 F for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are ready. Mix the honey with the mustard seeds and pour the mixture over the hens. Broil the cornish hens for 5 minutes more at 475 F. This is a very simple and easy recipe, but so delicious, you will think you can fly. I served the Cornish hen for this photo with roasted baby eggplant, asparagus, strawberry tomato, blueberries, mashed Peruvian potato and fried quail egg.
