Garlic Gamehens
Serves 2

For those who consider garlic a vegetable not a spice.. Modified a garlic chicken recipe I had. Had it as a special dinner tonight. Was WONDERFUL!
  • 2 rock Cornish game hens
  • 1-1/2 to 2 cups garlic cloves, whole but peeled
  • some butter
  • tarragon
  • sage
  • rosemary

Stuff the hens with the garlic cloves, (next time I'll microwave the garlic a bit first to be sure it is cooked when the hens are done) melt a little butter and add the other spices. Brush the hens with the spice butter cook until done uncovered in a medium oven (I don't know how long I use a meat thermometer and cook to 185° F internal temp)

Squish garlic cloves over fresh baked bread to eat with the hens. (I made a whole wheat bread, but a sourdough would work well too or even biscuits)

Serve with 1 bottle of a nice medium red wine (yeah I know but the garlic cries for red not white wine, besides the neighbors make a wonderful Pinot Noir that goes great with this)
