I made this recipe (with a variation on the stuffing; used one i had with wild rice and added apricots) for an appreciation luncheon at my children's school, and everyone raved! Definitely a keeper, and easy; no one else needs to know how simple this is!!

Very good. Next time I am not going to stuff the hens, but just make the rice and serve on the side. I made this for Xmas and the whole family enjoyed!

Wonderful recipe!! I substituded minced celery for mushrooms, and used 1/2 the butter that was called for, to lighten it up a bit. I doubled the stuffing to have extra. I got rave reviews...will make this many times over!!

I have this recipe and I have been making this for a few years now. The apricot rice with pecans has a wonderful flavor. I don't use mushrooms; however, my recipe calls for celery sautéed in butter instead. My family loves this!

I made this for a holiday dinner and it was delicious. I will make it again. I made extra stuffing and it served with the meal. Thanks!

I made this for a dinner party of 8...it was a huge hit. The men ate it up completely! The stuffing was easy and tasted great. Didn't change anything with the recipe. Would definitely make again!

Great recipe! I normally do not try recipes on this site with less than 30 ratings, but this one caught my eye as I was searching for something to use up some cornish hens. What FANTASTIC flavor!! This one will be on our family menu often. I used a little balsamic vinegar w/the preserves (instead of white cider vinegar) for a little extra punch, and it was delicious. Moist, yummy, and kid approved!

I loved this recipe. I ended up only roasting 2 cornish hens and I made about twice the amount of stuffing the original recipe called for because I love extra stuffing. So, what I couldn't get in the hens I served on the side. The only thing I would suggest is making extra apricot preserves and vinegar mixture to serve with the finished product. I tasted this glaze before I poured it on the hens and thought it was absolutely delicious-sweet and sour.
