- Place the game hens into a seal-able container. Pour the mixture over the game hens and marinade in the fridge for a few hours, or even overnight.
- When you are ready to cook, place them onto a foil lined baking sheet. Pour the remainder of the marinade over the hens.
- Cook in a 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes, these cook very fast when halved. Cook them to a temperature of 165 °F when a thermometer is inserted deep in the thigh,but not touching the bone.

Steps:
- Thaw hens place in large bowl and set aside.
- Take the next 5 ingredients and put in blender or food processor.
- Pour mixture over hens, cover with plastic and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
- About 20 minutes before you take out the hens begin the basting sauce and preheat the grill to about 400 degrees.
- First saute onion with butter in a small sauce pan.
- Add broth, cranberry sauce, sugar , strawberries and allspice bring to a boil.
- Add heavy cream as needed to bring to desired thickness.
- Strain the sauce then divide mixture in half.
- Sprinkle parsley and thyme on hens before grilling. I like to place hens directly on the grill to sear them then I move them to a pan to finish (because of grease and drippings).
- Use one half of the mixture to brush on hens while grilling to really pop the flavor. I baste around every 15 minutes or so. Again, do to your preference.
- When inside temp reaches 180 degrees the hens are finished usually takes at least 40 minutes. Use the thermometer it is the most accurate way to cook to perfection.
- Warm the other half of the sauce and serve with the hens and your favorite side dish.

CRANBERRY-GLAZED CORNISH HENS
Oregon is noted for its cranberry production and has many bogs throughout the state. In the Northwest, we use cranberries in a great variety of ways-in sauce, as a complement to meats, and in baked goods like cakes and muffins.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Put the game hens in a shallow, flameproof baking dish without crowding. Rub the hens all over with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cut the onion in half and place the halves, cut side down, around the hens. Arrange the gizzards and livers around the hens.
- Place the baking dish with hens on top of the stove over low heat. Turn the hens around in the dish to coat with the oil. Arrange the hens on their sides. Place in the oven and bake 15 minutes, basting often.
- Turn the hens to other side and continue baking 15 minutes, basting often.
- Turn the hens breast side up and continue baking about 10 minutes, basting often.
- Transfer the hens to a heated serving platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Skim off most of the fat from the pan liquid in the baking dish. Put the baking dish on top of the stove and bring the pan liquid to a boil. Add the wine and stir to dissolve any brown particles that may cling to the bottom of the pan. Strain the sauce into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook down to about half and add the honey, chicken broth and tomato paste. Stir. Add any liquid that has accumulated inside or around the hens. Add the cranberries and bring to a boil.
- Cook until the cranberries pop, about 3 minutes, stirring often. Swirl in the butter. Add salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the hens and serve.
