Cornish Hens with Strawberry-Balsamic Sauce

"A perfect special-event dinner that is sure to impress!"

Ingredients :

• 2 Cornish game hens
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
• kitchen twine
• Sauce:
• 1/2 cup seedless strawberry jam
• 1 tablespoon white wine (such as Pacific Rim Dry Riesling)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 dried Thai chile pepper

Instructions :

Prep : 15M	Cook : 2M	Ready in : 48M

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Set a metal rack over a baking sheet.
• Rub Cornish hens with olive oil; season inside and out with salt and pepper. Place 1 sprig rosemary in the cavity of each hen. Tie legs together with kitchen twine. Place hens breast side-up on the rack.
• Roast hens in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 25 to 35 minutes.
• Combine strawberry jam, white wine, balsamic vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until jam starts to melt, about 3 minutes. Add Thai chile pepper; let steep for 5 minutes.
• Remove sauce from heat and discard pepper. Serve alongside Cornish hens.

Notes :

• Add 1/2 cup finely chopped shallot, 1 1/2 teaspoon minced rosemary, and 1 chopped strawberry to the sauce if you would like.
