GRILLED CORNISH HENS RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT



Grilled Cornish Hens Recipe: How to Make It image

I like experimenting with different foods and adapting them to my own tastes. These hens are one of my specialties, an entree I concocted by combining a few different recipes. The moist meat has a pleasant grilled flavor that's accented with cloves and ginger.—David Baruch, Weston, Florida

Categories     main-dish

Total Time 4 hours 40 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Cornish hens, flattened
Kosher salt 
1/3 cup good olive oil 
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (2 lemons) 
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves) 
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves 
Freshly ground black pepper 
1 lemon, halved 
Fleur de sel, for serving 

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the Cornish hens with 1 teaspoon salt on each side.
  • Combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a ceramic or glass dish just large enough to hold the flattened hens. Add the hens, and turn to coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, turning once or twice.
  • When ready to grill, prepare a hot charcoal fire on one side of a grill (or turn a gas grill on low heat). Spread 1/4 of the coals across the other side of the grill. Place the hens on the cooler side skin-side up and weigh them down with a gratin dish with a foil-wrapped brick inside.
  • Cook for 12 minutes, until the underside is golden brown. Turn the hens skin-side down, weigh them down again, and cook for another 12 minutes until the skin is golden brown and the hens are cooked through.
  • Place the lemon halves on the cool side of the grill, cut-side down, for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Remove the Cornish hens and lemons to a plate or cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Cut the hens in half, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve with the grilled lemon halves.

CHEF JOHN'S GRILLED GAME HENS | ALLRECIPES
The idea for these grilled game hens is borrowed from my highly successful Cornell chicken experiments, and uses a similar acid/salt/oil/egg concoction. This time the part of egg is played by mayo. Needless to say, you can season this a million ways and use any combination of hot chilies, but the little kick the habanero adds is really nice.
