I am putting two of these in my crock pot today for dinner for my peeps and me. I will give them one to split, and I will make Smoked Cornish Game Hen Salad with the rest of mine. This cooking method guarantees they will come out extra juicy and tender!!
(serves 3-4)
1 sweet* onion, peeled and cut into thick slices
2 Cornish game hens, rinsed well* and patted dry with paper towels*
4 cloves garlic, peeled
2 springs fresh thyme
2 sliced preserved lemon*, rinsed*
2 t. smoked paprika
1 t. dried thyme
1&1/2 t. kosher* salt
1/2 t. Johnny's Garlic Seasoning*
1/8*-1/4 t. cayenne pepper
1 stick Kerrygold Garlic and Herb butter*, softened*
Place onion slices in bottom of a 6 qt. slow cooker. Place garlic and fresh thyme in cavities, along with the preserved lemon. In a small bowl, combine spices. Rub butter all over and carefully under skin. Pat spices all over birds. Place hens , breast sides down, on onions. Cover; cook on high 4 hours or low 6-8 hour or until 165. If desired, carefully transfer hens to a large baking dish, and place in the oven. Broil 3-5 min. or until skin is crispy. Remove; transfer to a cutting board. Let sit 15 min. before carving. Serve with onions.
