Recipe - Cornish Hens With Maple-Mustard Glaze

2 tablespoon Maple syrup
1 One half tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Dried thyme; crumbled
2 Cornish game hens
Salt and pepper

Wild rice and winter squash are perfect with this easy and elegant entrée.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine first 4 ingredients in small saucepan. Cook
over low heat until butter melts, stirring until well combined.

Pat hens dry. Tie legs together to hold shape. Place in small baking pan.
Season with salt and pepper. Brush with maple mixture. Roast until juices
run clear when hens are pierced in thickest part of thighs, basting
occasionally with glaze, about 1 hour.

2 servings; can be doubled or tripled
