4 x cornish hens
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
4 x strips bacon
2 cup diced mushrooms
2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 x white onion
1/4 cup grated carrots
1/2 cup red wine
1 tsp butter
salt/pepper
Instructions:
Instructions: Sautee onions, mushrooms, pecans, and carrots in butter until caramelized. Salt/pepper to taste. Add enough wine to deglaze pan. Remove sauteed mixture to a large bowl.

Stir in cilantro and breadcrumbs. Add wine until mixture arrives at desired stuffing consistancy (stuck together, but not soggy).

Salt/pepper cornish hens, and stuff each hen with mixture. Wrap one strip of bacon around each hen, and sear on all sides in pan. Once seared, place covered in 350* oven for 35-50 minutes. Remove when juices run clear. Wrap each hen in foil, and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes.

Serve with steamed asparagus and mashed sweet potatoes.
