Zubereitung von Bacon Wrapped Cornish Game Hens With Raspberry Balsamic Glaze
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup raspberry jam and 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar. Simmer over medium heat, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the glaze is reduced to about 1/2 cup (approximately 8-10 minutes).
- Allow the glaze to cool completely to room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Cook 8 slices of bacon in a skillet over medium heat until partially cooked, but still pliable (5-7 minutes). Remove bacon and drain on paper towels.
- Using kitchen shears, remove the backbones from each of the 4 Cornish game hens. Halve each hen lengthwise.
- Pat the hens dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Arrange the hen halves, cut-side down, in a large roasting pan.
- Wrap each hen half with 2 slices of cooked bacon, tucking the ends underneath.
- Brush the hens liberally with the cooled raspberry balsamic glaze, reserving some for later.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, basting twice with the pan juices and reserved glaze, until the juices run clear when a thigh is pierced with a fork.
