Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup parsley leaves, packed
2 tablespoons rosemary leaves
2 tablespoons thyme leaves
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 lemon, ends trimmed, cut into wedges and seeded
1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt, plus more for sprinkling
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
6 1/2 pound Cornish game hens
4 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Place parsley, rosemary, thyme, garlic, lemon, salt, and pepper in a food processor. Blend until finely chopped. With machine running, add olive oil.
  • Loosen skin from the hens. Put 1 tablespoon of herb mixture under skin of each hen, smoothing to cover breasts. Place the birds on a large rimmed baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove hens from refrigerator and bring to room temperature (about 1 hour). Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Place hens on a clean rimmed baking sheet (it's okay if they touch). Brush butter over surface of hens and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast in oven, rotating pan once until golden brown and cooked through (meat thermometer should read 165 degrees when placed in the thigh), about 50 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let stand at least 15 minutes before placing on individual plates. No carving necessary!

ROASTED CORNISH HENS



Roasted Cornish Hens image

Ever wondered how to cook cornish hens? It's so simple and a great alternative to roasting bigger birds. This delicious one-pan meal is easy enough to make for a family weeknight dinner and fancy enough to make for the holidays, especially as a simple Christmas main course. The cornish hens are brushed with herb butter and then cooked in the oven. Roasted cornish hens have tender and juicy meat, and the herb butter gives the poultry a beautiful roasted look.

Provided by Julia

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cornish hens (patted dry)
salt and pepper (to taste)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
5 tablespoons butter (softened, not melted)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
fresh thyme (to taste)
salt and pepper (generous amounts)
8 oz brussels sprouts
2 sweet potatoes (medium)
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Pat dry Cornish hens in and out with paper towels.
  • Rub the insides of Cornish hens with salt and pepper. Stuff the insides with minced garlic.
  • In a bowl, combine 5 tablespoons of softened (not melted) butter, 2 tablespoons olive oil, Italian seasoning, fresh thyme, and generous amounts of salt and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  • Place Cornish hens breast sides up in a large roasting pan or ovenproof braising dish. I used a 3.5 quart Staub cast-iron pan.
  • Rub this herb mixture all over the outside of Cornish hens. Sprinkle the outside (breast side) of cornish hens with a small amount of additional Italian seasoning and sprinkle with more salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Roast Cornish hens at 400 Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.
  • During these 15 minutes, while the cornish hens are baked, prepare the vegetables. Remove yellow leaves from Brussels sprouts and slice each in half. Peel the sweet potatoes (medium size) and cut them into cubes.
  • After the Cornish hens have cooked for 15 minutes, remove the roasting pan from the oven. Add cubed sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts (halved) to the bottom of the pan. Raise the cornish hens and add some sweet potatoes underneath the birds. As you do this, mix the veggies with the butter and the juices released from the birds. Arrange the veggies around the birds. Sprinkle veggies with more salt and freshly ground black pepper. Rub the outside (breast side) of Cornish hens with more butter (1 tablespoon or more).
  • Roast the Cornish hens for about 40 more minutes, until an instant meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165 °F. Make sure the thermometer does not touch the bone. Also, use the meat thermometer before the 40 minutes up (after the first 25 or 30 minutes).
  • Remove the hens from the oven and let them rest for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer baked Cornish hens and roasted vegetables to a platter. Serve Cornish hens whole or cut in half. Decorate with fresh thyme sprigs.

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. The high temperature at the beginning is to crisp the hens. Line the bottom of a baking pan, cast iron or roasting pan with foil.
  • Use your index finger to carefully loosen the skin on top of the hens and rub with garlic herb butter mixture. Plain butter works as well.

  • Season The Hen. Like all the most delicious things, we like to brush our Cornish hen with butter before it roasts. For seasoning, we keep it relatively simple: salt, pepper, and a nice hearty herb like thyme or rosemary (or both!).
  • Stuff The Cavity. To infuse even more flavor into your hen, stuff the cavity. Keep it simple with lemon and herbs, or experiment with other citrus like limes or mandarin oranges and other alliums like garlic or shallots.
  • Tuck The Wings. Since we like roasting our hens at a high temperature, it's important we protect the wings from charring to a crisp. Tucking the wings under the hen allows even browning and cooking no matter what temperature you're roasting at.
  • Tie The Legs. Trussing a chicken is about more than just looks! Not only does it insure the hen cooks evenly, it also helps the hen retain moisture, leading to tender, fall-off-the-bone meat.
  • Transfer To Baking Dish. We love a 2-in-1 dinner. Roasting our veggie side with our hen couldn't be easier—simply scatter your potatoes (or parsnips, carrots, onions, or sweet potatoes!)
  • Get Roasting! Pop your dish in a 425° oven and roast for 50 minutes, or until potatoes are golden and tender and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the hen reads 160°.
  • Serve. Et violá! The perfect dinner for two. Pour yourself a glass of chilled dry white wine for a job well done.

  • Preheat oven to 450F. Remove birds from wrapping, remove gizzards (inside stuff) and pat dry inside and out. Place a cooling rack on a baking pan. Place them breast-side up on the cooling rack inside of the pan.
