Cornish Hen

 

Ingredients for 4 portions
of Cornish Hen
:

2 larger cornish hens, cut in half,
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
or old fashioned grainy mustard,
4 tablespoons honey,
1 tablespoon vegetable oil,
salt and pepper to taste.

 

Recipe:

1. Sear the hens in a frying pan with little oil and transfer them in a roasting pan.

2. 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.

3. Mix the honey with the mustard seeds and pour the mixture over the hens.

4. 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.
