Game hens marinated in an herb and sweet/sour mixture, baked in the oven or, alternatively, spit-roasted. I like to serve 1/2 a hen on a nest of pasta, surrounded by vegetables. To prepare more than one hen, simply use 2 T honey and 1 T each vinegar and garlic per hen. Cook time includes 4 hour marinating time. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons honey |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
1 tablespoon garlic, minced |
fresh thyme |
fresh marjoram or oregano |
fresh sage |
salt and pepper |
1 cornish hen, split in half |
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients in a plastic bag and marinate, refrigerated, for 4 hours.
2. Place chicken, skin side up, and marinade in baking dish and bake in 375° oven for 1 hour or until cooked through.
