Stufed Cornish Game Hen from the Court of Two Sisters

I will never forget the first time I had a Cornish Game Hen. My mother had cooked them and I was suprised to see this small version of a chicken sitting on my plate. I have always loved to stuffed Cornish Hen. They cook quicked than a chicken and the individual size makes a great presentation.

6-8 Hens

3 tablespoons Butter

1/3 cup Whit Onion, diced

1/3 cup Celery, diced

1/3 cup Bell Pepper, diced

2 cups cooked Wild Rice

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper

1 cup Andouille sausage, ground or chopped fine

Melted Butter

Sauté diced vegetables in butter and add sausage, and cooked wild rice. Blend together and stuff hens.Place stuffed and trussed boneless game hens on a baking rack over 2 cups water and brush generously with melted butter. Bake in a 350 degree oven approximately 1 hour, switching to broil for the last five minutes to complete browning. Add salt and pepper before serving.

Enjoy!!!
