Comment préparer Cornish Game Hens With Pineapple Pepper Sauce

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Remove giblets from Cornish hens and rinse hens inside and out. Pat completely dry with paper towels.
Cut each hen in half lengthwise using kitchen shears or a sharp knife.
Arrange hen halves, skin-side up, in an ungreased 13x9 inch baking dish.
**Broil (optional):** For extra crispy skin, broil hen halves 4-6 inches from the heat for 8-10 minutes, or until skin begins to brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the pineapple pepper sauce ingredients: 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned), 1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color), 1/4 cup chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste), and salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the pineapple pepper sauce evenly over the hen halves.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the hens are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste with pan juices halfway through baking.
Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired.
