- 1 Small Granny Smith Apple (Finely Chopped)
- 1 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Rosemary

- 1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

- In medium-size bowl combine cranberries, apples, garlic, rosemary, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Spoon cranberry mixture into cavities of hens. With kitchen twine tie legs together. Place in large-size cast iron skillet or baking dish. Place potatoes around hens. Drizzle hens and potatoes with remaining olive oil. Dot hens and potatoes with butter pieces.
