I was hesitant to try this Cornish Game Hen at first, and I was really shocked to find that I prefer hen now to chicken. I wanted to share a recipe with you all that I made up for this hen when I decided to make it myself. Luckily, it did not turn out like my baked chicken which I did not post, because let's just say, that I did not even think to clean it out nor did I defrost it before cooking:( The hen turned out much better thanks to some help from my mother in law and my mom:)
Anyways, here is the recipe and this is great to make for a small group or for family. 1 hen feeds 1-2 people so if you have a large gathering it might get a little pricey.
Butter Baked Hen
Ingredients:
Hen(s)
Butter
Rosemary
Lemon
Thyme
1 onion
Directions:
1. Prepare the hens by cleaning them and then coat each hen in butter and place in a baking dish.
2. Add Rosemary and Thyme approximately 1/4 Tablespoon of each.
3. Juice 1/2 lemon per hen and then coat the hen.
4. Cut the onion in 4 pieces. Place 1 piece in each hen.
5. Bake for 45min-1hr on 350.
6. Enjoy!
P.S. If you have leftovers, hen sandwich's are also really great!

Salena- Hope you try the hen its great ")
Josh- That recipe sounds good. I still remember my ramen days as a freshman in college. Can't say I miss them though. lol but I still like ramen noodles now, except I only like the chicken ones and the lime shrimp.
