For Christmas dinner I enjoy making Cornish hens with veggies for my husband and I. It is really simple and requires no carving.
Ingredients: -2 cornish hens -1 sweet onion chopped -carrots -potatoes -1 stick of butter melted -2 tsp of dried oregano -2 tsp of dried rosemary -1 tbs of minced garlic -1 tbs of olive-salt and pepper -oven bag (optional) Directions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, melt the butter and mix in the garlic,oregano and rosemary. I used small potatoes and mini carrots so that I didn't have to chop. Place the vegetables and onions in a bowl and combine with the butter mixture. I like to use an oven bag because I feel is makes the chicken extra moist. Place a little bit of flour in the oven bag and put in the veggies and place in a pan. Brush olive oil on the hens and season with salt and pepper. Place on top of the vegetables(breast side up) and close the oven bag. Cut a few slits into the oven bag. Bake in the oven for 1 hour-1 hour 15 min or until the thermometer reads 180 degrees.
