Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

poultry, microwave

5 slice bacon, diced
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup thinly sliced celery
2/3 cup seasoned stuffing mix
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cornish game hens
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoon bouquet sauce

In a 1 quart casserole microwave bacon at high for 4 to 5 minutes or until crisp. Remove to paper towels. Drain fat, reserving 3 tablespoons. Add onion and celery to fat in casserole.

In 1 cup measure, melt butter at high for 30 to 60 seconds. Blend in bouquet sauce. Brush hens with 1/4 of the mixture. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave at high for 8 minutes. Turn over; brush with remaining mixture; cover. Microwave at high for 7 1/2 to 9 1/2 minutes, or until legs move freely and juices run clear. Let stand tented for 5 minutes. Total microwave time: 22 to 27 1/2 minutes. Standing time: 5 minutes. The stuffing can be prepared on a conventional stove and used with chicken. Posted by Stephen Ceideberg; August 6 1992.
