- Combine apricot preserves, orange rind, and orange juice; set aside. Remove giblets from hens; reserve for other uses. Rinse hens with cool water, and pat dry. Close cavities, and secure with wooden picks; truss. Sprinkle with paprika and place on a rack in a lightly greased roasting pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hrs, basting frequently with about 1/2 c. apricot mix during the last 30 min.
- Saute/fry cashews in butter in a large skillet till cashews are golden brown. Drain and set aside, reserving butter in skillet. Saute/fry onions in same skillet till tender. Add in wild rice, and prepare according to package directions, substituting chicken broth for water and omitting salt. When done, stir the cashews back into the rice. Arrange Cornish hens on serving platter; brush with remaining apricot mix. Garnish with apricot roses and spinach leaves, if you like, and serve with rice.
- * To make apricot roses, use a rolling pin to flatten 4 or possibly 5 dry apricots for each rose. Wrap apricots around each other, shaping them to resemble a rose; healthy pinch stem end to make them adhere.
