B. Smith's Roasted Cornish Game Hen
 
Ingredients

2 Cornish game hens, split
½ cup olive oil
½ cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon rosemary
1 teaspoon parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper

Directions

1. To split the hens, take a sharp knife or kitchen shears and carefully cut down one side of the backbone. Cut along the other side and remove backbone. Remove skin, then rinse hens.

2. Prepare marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside a few tablespoons of the marinade to brush on during cooking.

3. Place Cornish hens and marinade in a large, plastic re-sealable bag. Place in the refrigerator for a few hours. Turn occasionally.

4. Heat up the grill. (If you don't have a grill, you could broil these in the oven.) Place the hens on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes on each side.

5. Brush with reserved marinade as needed during cooking. Place on platter, and serve.
