    2 Cornish game hens
    -- (about 2 3/4 pounds)
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper -- freshly ground
    1/3 cup honey and ginger sauce

    1 tablespoon dry white wine

    1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard

    Remove giblets from hens for another use. Rinse hens; pat dry. Split in half through breast bones. Brush each half with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange, skin side down, on rack in shallow roasting pan.

    Place hens in preheated hot oven (400 degrees F.). Reduce temperature to moderate (350 degrees F.). Roast for 25 minutes.

    Meanwhile, combine sauce, or honey and chopped gingerroot, wine, vinegar, and mustard in small saucepan. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat to low; simmer 2 minutes.

    Remove hens from oven. Brush generously with warm glaze. Turn skin side up. Brush with glaze. Roast 30 minutes or until thigh juices run clear when pierced with knife. Baste after 15 minutes with remaining glaze and pan drippings.
