Cornish Game Hens Under a Brick

Crispy and juicy with a delectable sauce of wine and thyme. Very quick and easy to make if you’ve prepared the garlic oil ahead You’ll be licking your fingers in short order. This dish is a bit oily but for a special treat, it’s wonderful. Substitute any favorite herb for the thyme, if desired. From Rozanne Gold, a favorite cookbook author. Prep and cook times for the garlic oil are not included below. It will take about 20 minutes to prepare the garlic oil if it’s used while still warm.

Weeknight Deviled Cornish Hen

This recipe came from USA Weekend. I put the exact instructions that they gave on this recipe as it was great advice. A little slather of mustard heightens flavor, and the bread crumbs and thyme offer nice crunch. If there’s room on the roasting pan, add a few vegetables if you like — carrots, potatoes, onions, cauliflower tossed with a little oil, salt and pepper — but don’t overcrowd the pan. You want those birds to roast, not stew!
