Ingredients For the Cornish Hens: * 2 Cornish hens * 8 slices of butter (4 per hen) * Salt, to taste * Fresh thyme * Fresh oregano * Fresh parsley * 8 garlic cloves * 1 whole onion, quartered * 1 lemon, halved * Olive oil, for drizzling For the Potatoes: * 3–4 potatoes, cut into wedges * Juice of 1 lemon * ¼ cup olive oil * Salt, to taste * Fresh thyme * Fresh oregano Instructions 1. Prepare the Cornish Hens Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place both Cornish hens in a large baking dish. Season the inside of each hen with salt. Carefully slide 4 slices of butter underneath the skin of each hen. 2. Stuff the Hens Stuff each hen with: * A few sprigs of fresh thyme, oregano, and parsley * 2 garlic cloves * ¼ of the onion * ½ lemon Secure the opening of each hen with a toothpick to keep everything inside. 3. Season the Hens Drizzle olive oil over each hen and gently massage it into the skin, coating the entire bird. 4. Prepare the Potatoes In a separate bowl, combine the potatoes with: * Juice of 1 lemon * ¼ cup olive oil * Salt, to taste * Fresh thyme and oregano Mix everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated. 5. Assemble the Baking Dish Arrange the remaining onion quarters around the Cornish hens. Add the seasoned potatoes around the hens, followed by the remaining garlic cloves. 6. Roast Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and roast at 375°F for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the hens are golden brown and the potatoes are tender. The hens are fully cooked when the thickest part of the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). 7. Serve Remove from the oven, allow the hens to rest for 5–10 minutes, and serve with the roasted lemon and herb potatoes. #chickenrecipes #cookingathome #cookingvideo #roastedchicken #cornishhens
