List of Ingredients




2 Cornish hens
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped, peeled, fresh lemon grass
1/4 cup light coconut milk
1/4 cup honey, divided
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon Thai chile sauce
2 garlic cloves

Remove and discard giblets and necks from hens. Rinse hens with cold water; pat dry. Split hens in half lengthwise. Remove skin; trim excess fat. Place cilantro, lemon grass, coconut milk, 3 tablespoons honey, fish sauce and remaining ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. Pour mixture into a large ziploc plastic bag. Add hen halves; seal and marinate in refrigerator 12 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 400F. Remove hen halves from bag, reserving marinade. Place reserved marinade in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Place hen halves, meaty sides up, on a broiler pan. Insert a meat thermometer into meaty part of a thigh, making sure not to touch bone. Bake at 400F for 30 minutes, basting frequently with the reserved marinade. Brush remaining 1 tablespoon honey over hens and bake hens an additional 20 minutes or until thermometer registers 180F. 4 servings.
