Instructions

Rinse the hens and pat dry.

Heat the guava jam in a small pot over low heat. Add the ketchup, butter, soy sauce, oyster sauce, Chinese five spice, salt and garlic and mix well; remove from heat and let cool.

Loosen the skin on the game hens and put into a large zip top bag. Add the guava marinade, seal the bag and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the hens from the marinade and place them onto a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, basting occasionally with the guava marinade.  Serve with garden fresh veggies and mac salad.
