4 Cornish Hens
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic -- minced
1 tablespoon Tabasco Sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder Blend
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper

Remove and discard giblets from hens cavities and wash hens inside and outside thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry with paper towels and let sit about 20 minutes to come to room temperature.
In a small saucepan, melt butter and stir in remaining ingredients except cilatnro. Place hens onto the prepared pan and slather all over liberally with the butter-chili sauce. Roast 40-45 minutes, basting frequently with sauce and pan juices, until cooked through and juices run clear.
