Red Raisin-Sauced Cornish Hens - CDKitchen.com

serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  over 5 hrs

ingredients

1 package (6 ounce size) stuffing mix
4 Cornish hens
salt and pepper, to taste

Sauce

1 jar (10 ounce size) red currant jelly
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup butter or margarine
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon allspice

directions

Mix stuffing according to package directions and stuff hens. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place trivet in slow cooker.

In a 3-1/2 quart crock pot, place hens on end, neck end down.

In saucepan combine jelly, raisins, butter, lemon juice and allspice. Cook on low heat, stirring, until blended. Brush some of the sauce on hens in the pot. Brush hens once during cooking, if possible.

Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 5-7 hours. Spoon remaining sauce over hens at serving time.

NOTE: If you don't have a trivet, you can crumple up aluminum foil and place that in the bottom - it's just so the birds don't rest in the liquids while cooking.
