  1. I chose this bcz I had all the ingredients. After 1/2 hour, I basted with olive oil, as there were no real drippings (even at the end). This was not done (except for breast meat) even at 1 1/2 hours. Easy to make, but the flavor wasn't anything special (although it might have changed if we had cooked it longer or higher heat.) Thanks.
     
  2. I looked for a recipe for my two little game hens, and had just about settled on one when I found this wonderful recipe!! I chose it because it didn't require cutting the game hens in half. But that turned out to be only one part of the ease of the recipe! The taste was fabulous, and the whole recipe was very simple to prepare. DH and I thoroughly enjoyed these! Thank you SueVM!
