Honeycrisp Hen

Here is a great little dish I cooked up this weekend. It is super simple to do and combines the great flavor of apples and Cornish hen. And not just any apple - the great Honeycrisp apple. I stuffed the bird with apple slices and cooked it in a tagine cooker over a bed of sliced portobello mushrooms. It was one of the best things ever. Check out the prep video below.

Here is a short clip, peering into the tagine cooker as the Cornish hen is cooked and ready. I cooked the bird about 2 hours and 45 minutes on low heat. I served the hen and mushrooms with mashed potatoes. I mixed in a little of the stock from the pan in with the potatoes. OMG, it was great.
