Cornish Game Hens: Perfect for One or Two Bites

While shopping in the grocery store the other day, I came across Cornish game hens. I have not roasted or even tasted the little guys in a couple of years. Not sure why not…they are a perfect protein solution as a quick dinner for one or two.
In a short period of time you have a crispy, tasty bird for dinner alone or with company that requires no heavy lifting in and out of the oven. In celebration of spring I’ve paired the hen with baby carrots roasted whole, alongside the bird. You could use regular slim carrots halved lengthwise. Enjoy a little taste of Spring!
