How to cook deliciously - Apricot-Glazed Cornish Hens

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a cookie sheet generously with cooking spray.

2. Stage

Combine apricot preserves, Sriracha, Worcestershire, and butter in a small pot and melt over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent from sticking.

3. Stage

Clean hens and pat dry with paper towels. Coat outsides and insides with oil. Season with mango-habanero seasoning; insert sprigs of basil inside of the hens.

4. Stage

Place hens on the prepared cookie sheet and cover with foil.

5. Stage

Cook in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove foil and baste with apricot glaze. Put back in the oven and cook until no longer pink in the centers, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
