Zubereitung von Baked Game Hens
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel and thinly slice 1 medium apple and 1/2 medium onion.
- Gently stuff the apple and onion slices into the cavity of each game hen.
- Place the game hens on a rack in a shallow baking pan. This allows for even cooking and crispy skin.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of melted butter and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
- Brush the butter-soy sauce mixture generously over the game hens.
- Bake, uncovered, for 60-75 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear. Baste the hens with pan juices every 20 minutes for extra flavor and moisture.
- Let the game hens rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
