Ingredients

6 servings
  • Three 1½-pound Cornish Game Hens
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup whole grain mustard
  • 2 tablespoons dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Steps

  1. Remove and discard giblets and necks from the Cornish hens. Rinse the hens under cold water; pat dry. Remove the skin; trim the excess fat and discard. Split the hens in half lengthwise. Sprinkle salt and pepper over hen halves; set aside.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients.

  3. Pre-heat your grill or your oven broiler. Place hen halves, meaty sides up, on a grill rack or rack of a broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 15 minutes on each side or until juices run clear, basting occasionally with mustard mixture.
