Steps:
- Preheat the broiler, and adjust the rack to about 4 inches from the heat source. Use a sharp, sturdy knife to split the hens through their backbones; it will cut through without too much effort. Rub the skin side with olive oil. Flatten the hens in a broiling or roasting pan, skin side down, and liberally sprinkle the exposed surfaces with salt and pepper. Slice one lemon as thinly as you can (a mandoline is best for this) and lay the slices on the birds.
- Broil for about 10 minutes, or until the lemon is browned and the birds appear cooked on top; rotate the pan if necessary. Turn the birds over, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and return to the heat. Cook another 10 minutes, or until the skin is nicely browned. Meanwhile, slice the remaining lemon as thinly as possible.
- Lay the lemon slices on the skin, and broil 5 minutes. The lemons should be slightly browned and the birds cooked through; if not, cook a couple of minutes more. Drizzle with the balsamic vinegar, garnish with parsley and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Using the fingers, separate the skin from the breast meat to make a cavity for stuffing.
- Combine the walnuts, butter, mustard and Cognac in the container of a food processor or electric blender. Blend to make a paste. Fill the cavities with equal portions of the mixture. Tie up the birds or truss them neatly with string. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub them all over with oil.
- Arrange the birds breast side up in a shallow, heatproof roasting pan and scatter the necks, gizzards and hearts around the birds. Set the livers aside. Place the pan on the stove and heat until the oil sizzles. Put the birds into the oven and bake, basting often, about 20 minutes.
- Turn each hen on its side and continue baking, basting often, about 10 minutes. Turn each again and bake 5 minutes. Add the livers and cook 10 minutes longer. To test for doneness, lift one of the birds; the liquid from the inside should run clear.
- Untruss the hens and serve.

GRILLED CORNISH GAME HENS WITH PESTO
Another fabulous recipe from Mary Nell Reck's weekly cooking lesson in the Houston Post. This one came out in February of 1989 and is a recipe from Johnny Carrabba, chef and owner of Carrabba's Restaurant here in Houston, way back when there was only the original restaurant. The Cornish hens may be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to grill.

Steps:
- Cut off the wing tips of the Cornish hens.
- Split open, cutting through the breast.
- Split in half through the back by cutting on both sides of the backbone.
- Using a small, sharp knife, remove the ribs and breastbone.
- These bones are easily removed and doing so makes it much easier for the diner to enjoy.
- Slip your fingers under the skin to separate it from the meat. Go in from the side which was next to the backbone. This is where the pesto stuffing goes. Set hen aside while preparing the pesto.
- Give the garlic cloves a firm whack with the side of a knife to remove the skin.
- Crush to release the oils then place in a food processor along with the parmesan cheese, pine nuts, basil leaves,parsley,salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Process until finely ground.
- Slowly add just enough olive oil to make the pesto pasty and moist, but not runny.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the stuffing under the skin of each half and evenly distribute it by applying gentle pressure to the skin.
- Any remaining pesto can be placed in a covered container and refrigerated for several weeks. Because the parsley has been added it will retain its bright green color.
- Sprinkle the skin with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Lightly drizzle with olive oil.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Close to serving time, place about six pieces of pecan or oak chips in water to soak.
- Get a charcoal fire ready to grill on or turn on the gas grill if using that.
- Place the wet wood chips on the coals/ burner to create flavorful smoke.
- Grill the stuffed hens until richly browned on both sides, about 10-20 minutes in all, depending on size of hen.
- Serve immediately.

BROILED CORNISH HENS WITH MOLASSES AND ALLSPICE
Although most of the molasses imported by the Colonies in the seventeenth century was used to make rum, some found its way into the kitchen. Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Number Of Ingredients 4
Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. In a small bowl stir together the molasses, the lemon juice, the allspice, and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the hens skin side down on a lightly oiled rack of a broiler pan and brush them with some of the molasses mixture. Broil the hens about 4 inches from the heat, brushing them once with some of the remaining molasses mixture, for 10 minutes, turn them, and broil them for 4 minutes more. Brush the hens with the remaining molasses mixture and broil them for 4 to 5 minutes more, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
