Preparation
Step 1
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Tie game hens' legs together, rub each hen with 1/2 tsp oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in stove-top-safe roasting pan.
Roast hens 40 minutes. Melt 1/2 cup preserves; brush hens with some. Roast 10 minutes more until instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees.
Remove hens to serving platter; tent with foil. Whisk 1 cup water, the sauce mix and the remaining preserves into drippings in roasting pan. Place over medium heat, stir to dissolve browned bits and simmer until a bit thickened. Use kitchen shears to cut hens in half; serve with sauce.
