3 2 1 Spatchcock!!! I cooked up some Spatchcocks for The Black Adder and his sister last Friday. I wasn't planning to put the recipe on the raider, because I figured it would be such in a pain in the ass. In reality, it ended up being easy and fun, and they turned out incredible. The birds were quite large for individual serves, but we were all literally sucking the last bit of meat off the bones in the end. I served them up with some sweet potato mash which was fantastic as well (probably due to the half pound of butter involved). Mom keeps complaining that all of my recipes are too involved, so I'll try to do a practical one next week... Just for you mommie... ingredients: 2 Spatchcocks/Cornish Game Hens (not just any cockledo) 200 Grams Wild Rice 250 Grams Shitake Mushrooms 4 Slices Bacon 1 Clove Garlic 1/4 Cup White Wine 1/4 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream 2 Sprigs Rosemary Olive Oil 1 Tsp Salt (to taste) Get things started by cooking up your rice. There should be instructions on the package, but just in case you harvested it yourself, I suggest bringing water to the boil, adding the rice, slightly reducing the heat, and cooking for about 35 - 40 minutes, when the rice begins to curl up. Rinse the rice with cold water and set aside. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Chop up the bacon into 1 cm squares. In a saute pan, cook the bacon until nearly crisp, add the garlic and cook for a couple minutes. Add the mushrooms, sliced, and saute for about 4 minutes. Add the white wine, and cook for another couple of minutes. Add the rice and cream. Stir for a couple of minutes, and remove from heat. While the stuffing is still hot, use a spoon to shove in the cavity of the bird. Just keep packing it in until you can't pack no more. Grease up the bird with olive oil (don't be afraid to get the old mitts slippery). Place the birds in a roasting dish or baking pan. Slide your fingers down the rosemary sprigs to loosen, and spread over each bird. Cook uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Put some mash on a plate, lay your chickies down and garnish with rosemary. ![]()
