Como fazer Apple Glazed Cornish Game Hens

  1. Preheat your broiler.
  2. Spray a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Place Cornish hens (or chicken drumsticks) skin-side down on the prepared pan, 7 inches from the broiler element.
  4. Broil for 15 minutes.
  5. Flip the hens and broil for another 5-10 minutes (10-15 for drumsticks), or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. While the hens are broiling, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup apple cider, 1/2 cup apple jelly, 1 tablespoon five-spice powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  7. Bring the glaze mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  8. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 7 minutes, or until the glaze thickens to a syrupy consistency.
  9. Remove the hens from the broiler and carefully remove the skin from each hen (if using Cornish hens).
  10. Brush half of the warm glaze over the hens.
  11. Return the hens to the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and slightly caramelized.
  12. Transfer the hens to a serving platter and drizzle with the remaining glaze. Serve immediately.
