How to Make Crock Pot Moroccan Cornish Game Hens
- Rinse two Cornish game hens thoroughly and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, whisk together: 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon ground turmeric, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste).
- Brush the spice mixture generously all over the Cornish game hens, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Cover the hens and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Pour any remaining marinade from the bowl into the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Place the marinated Cornish game hens in the slow cooker.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of chopped tomatoes evenly over the hens.
- Cook on low for 5 1/2 to 6 hours, or until the hens are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Serve the game hens on a platter over a bed of hot cooked rice.
- Garnish with toasted sesame seeds (optional).
