That being said the result was fantastic. The flavor of the bacon with the glaze is to die for. I think the reason that people noted the flavor doesn't permeate the meat is probably because we all take the skin off this days. To make again, I will not reduce the glaze as much and put it under the skin of the hen.
Then while roasting brushing the glaze on as written. Mine looked just like the photo. I thought this was exceptional!
On my top 10 list of chicken recipes. Did add a little bit of grated fresh ginger but don't think it needed it. Would be a great dinner for a crowd as you could get everything ready ahead of time and then roast.
Served wild rice and green beans that were blanched and then sauteed with a small amount of the bacon grease. Little Silver, NJ.
This was a last minute Thanks Giving dinner decision for my visiting son so when I did not have the appropriate Balsamic Vinegar and Seedless Raspberry Jam I substituted a reduction of a nice tart red wine and jellied cranberries. The reduction was just beautiful and fit the occasion. The glaze was crimson and gorgeous! The remaining juices were perfect for my yams leaving them sweet and tender.
Would definitely repeat. Timmins, Ontario. I've never done hens but after all the great reviews I decided to give it a shot - good choice! Boyfriend was blown away. Only had 4 pieces of bacon so criss-crossed them over the top of the hens. Biggest addition was to add slices of orange under the skin - the citrus was great with the rest of the flavors. Will be making these for guests! I also did not pre-cook the bacon, set the oven at and at for the last mins to crisp the bacon. I also added ginger and pepper flakes.
Also to make the glaze thicker, I suggest using balsalmic glaze instead of vinegar. It was delicious! What more needs to be said? This dish was totally delicious! I read all of the previous reviews and made the following changes--added some ginger and red pepper to the glaze; had some fresh raspberries on hand so threw those in too; did not cook the bacon before wrapping the hens with it.
But the biggest change that I found was the amount of time that it took to reduce the glaze. I didn't time it but I think it was more like minutes instead of 8. Wrap a brick in aluminum foil and place into the oven to heat.

Wash chicken. Pat dry with paper towel inside and out, rub with salt inside and out. Set aside. Put herbed croutons in a freezer bag and crush just to break it down but do not pulverized. Add chicken stock to moisten the croutons.
Add all the other ingredients and shake in a bag to mix. Stuff and truss the chicken. Transfer to a roasting pan breast side down. Bake for about 40 minutes, then crank the oven to degrees F and roast breast side up for another 5 minutes or until browned. Remove from oven and let it rest for about minutes.
