Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup thinly sliced garlic clove
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
6 (1 1/4 lb) Cornish hens
6 rosemary sprigs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix garlic and chopped rosemary together in a small bowl.
  • Rinse each hen under cold water; pat dry. Starting at neck cavity, loosen skin from breast by gently inserting fingers between skin and meat. Place about 2 teaspoons of garlic mixture under skin and spread evenly over breast meat. Place 1 rosemary sprig in body cavity. Sprinkle hens with salt and pepper.
  • Tie ends of legs together with cord. Lift wing tips out and tuck under hen. Place hens on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray; bake for 1 hour or until juices run clear. Remove skin and cord before serving; split hens in half lengthwise.
