âThese hens taste wonderful. Theyâre just the right thing to serve when youâre having company over. Your guests will think you spent the whole day in the kitchen!â Kara de la Vega - Santa Rosa, CA Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon dill weed |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
2 cornish game hens (20 to 24 ounces each), split lengthwise |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/4 cup chopped green onions |
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
1/4 cup thawed orange juice concentrate |
2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first five ingredients; sprinkle over hens. In a large skillet, cook hens over medium-high heat in oil until browned on both sides. Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish; set aside and keep warm.
