    • 🧈 3 tablespoons butter
    • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds
    • 🧅 2 tablespoons chopped onion
    • ⅓ cup uncooked wild rice

    • 🧈 ¼ cup melted butter

STEPS

1

Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the almonds, onion, and uncooked wild rice. Saute 5 to 10 minutes. Mix in the water, chicken bouillon cube, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and cook 45 minutes until rice is tender and easily fluffed with a fork.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Season the Cornish game hens inside and out with salt, and stuff with the rice mixture. Place the hens breast side up on a rack in a baking pan. Brush with 1/4 cup melted butter.

4

Cover the baking pan, and cook the hens 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Uncover, and continue cooking 1 hour, or until the hens are no longer pink and the juices run clear.
