Remove the pan from the oven, cover with foil and let the hens rest for 5 minutes before serving. Transfer the hens to a large serving tray with the roasted vegetables.

- Season The Hen. Like all the most delicious things, we like to brush our Cornish hen with butter before it roasts. For seasoning, we keep it relatively simple: salt, pepper, and a nice hearty herb like thyme or rosemary (or both!).
- Stuff The Cavity. To infuse even more flavor into your hen, stuff the cavity. Keep it simple with lemon and herbs, or experiment with other citrus like limes or mandarin oranges and other alliums like garlic or shallots.
- Tuck The Wings. Since we like roasting our hens at a high temperature, it's important we protect the wings from charring to a crisp. Tucking the wings under the hen allows even browning and cooking no matter what temperature you're roasting at.
- Tie The Legs. Trussing a chicken is about more than just looks! Not only does it insure the hen cooks evenly, it also helps the hen retain moisture, leading to tender, fall-off-the-bone meat.
- Transfer To Baking Dish. We love a 2-in-1 dinner. Roasting our veggie side with our hen couldn't be easier—simply scatter your potatoes (or parsnips, carrots, onions, or sweet potatoes!)
- Get Roasting! Pop your dish in a 425° oven and roast for 50 minutes, or until potatoes are golden and tender and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the hen reads 160°.
- Serve. Et violá! The perfect dinner for two. Pour yourself a glass of chilled dry white wine for a job well done.
