A Couple Of Tipsy Chicks

I marinated these cornish hens in lime, rum, and honey and then gave them a slow roast! hope you like them!

Wash your hens then dry them with a paper towel.

Mix together all other ingredients except butter and pour into a large ziploc bag with the cornish hens.

Marinate the hens for a couple of hours , turning the bag once or twice in the fridge.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees f.

Remove the hens from the plastic bag and place in a baking dish.

Pour the marinade on top of them.

Rub the butter all over the hens.

Put a little foil on the leg.

Roast the hens for 1 hour and 15 minutes until a meat thermometer reads 175 to 180 degrees when placed in the dark meat.

Let the hens rest , covered with foil , for 10 minutes then serve !.
