PASTA SALAD WITH MARINATED TOMATOES AND TUNA



Pasta Salad With Marinated Tomatoes and Tuna image

Fresh, quick-marinated tomatoes make the best sauces for pasta salad because not much needs to be done beyond tossing the tomatoes with hot pasta, salt and olive oil. The juices from the tomatoes and the heat create a gloriously glossy combination. Feel free to make this pasta salad ahead of time, then toss in flaked tuna right before serving.

Cornish Hen with Tart Cherry Sauce image

This was an idea I had for a long time but never got around to doing it and it came out fantastic couldn't have hoped for better. My wife and I loved it. The tart cherries complement the flavorful rub on the hen perfectly. For golden brown crispy skin increase temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for last 10 minutes of cooking.

Time 1h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
⅛ teaspoon paprika
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 Cornish game hens
½ cup white wine
1 (15 ounce) can tart cherries, drained
1 ½ cups red wine
¼ cup pulp-free orange juice
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine sea salt, black pepper, thyme, garlic powder, rosemary, and paprika in a bowl. Place hens on a baking sheet and evenly brush with 5 tablespoons butter. Rub hens with spice mixture.
  • Bake hens in preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 1/2 hours, basting every 1/2 hour with white wine. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
  • Mix cherries, red wine, orange juice, and brown sugar in a saucepan; bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in 2 tablespoons butter, and cook until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle flour into the sauce; whisk until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle cherry sauce over cooked hens.
