Stuffed Cornish Game Hens

Cooking with Tupperware making Stuffed Cornish Game Hens in the Ultra Pro Square Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter divided
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1 cup prepared stuffing divided
  • 2 carrots peeled, chopped
  • 2 parsnips peeled, chopped
  • 5 mushrooms quartered

Instructions

Prep the birds

  • Preheat oven to 400° F/205° C. In the cavity of each Cornish game hen, add ½ cup of prepared stuffing. Place hens, breast side up, in the UltraPro 2-Qt./2 L Square Pan (or UltraPro 2-Qt./2L Casserole Pan). Rub each hen with butter. Add carrots, parsnips and mushrooms to pan. Sprinkle vegetables and hens with salt and pepper.

Cook the game hens

  • Place pan in microwave. Microwave on high power 12 minutes. Remove pan from microwave. Baste vegetables and hens with pan drippings. Place pan in oven. Bake an additional 20 minutes or until hens are golden brown and register 160° F/72° C on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the stuffing.

Assemble, plate and serve

  • Remove pan from oven and let stand 5 minutes. Transfer hens to a cutting board. Cut hens in half lengthwise. Serve warm with vegetables and pan drippings.
