Stick a couple of baked potatoes in the oven and toss a salad, and you have a great meal. I found this in Taste Of Home magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting this for safe keeping.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 hen, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

20 ounces Cornish hens
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Steps:

  • Place Cornish hen in a large resealable plastic bag. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour half of the marinade over hen; seal bag and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning several times. Refrigerate the remaining marinade for basting.
  • Drain and discard marinade. Place hen, skin side up, in a greased 9-inch square baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 400 for 30 minutes. Baste with reserved marinade. Bake 20-30 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 180. Cut in half to serve.
