Cornish Hen in Crockpot?

Does anyone have a good recipe for Cornish Hen in the crockpot? I am debating whether to use potatoes or rice (I don't think stuffing will work). Also, what spices/rubs/ect?

Any ideas???? Thanks!

Re: Cornish Hen in Crockpot?

I didn't crock pot it...but I can't see why you couldn't crock pot it? I halved this recipe, and only used 2 game hens. It was delicious and came out great!




4 Cornish game hens
salt and pepper to taste
1 lemon, quartered
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
3 tablespoons olive oil
24 cloves garlic (That is what recipe calls for but I did like half of that)
1/3 cup white wine
1/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
4 sprigs fresh rosemary, for garnish


Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Rub hens with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Lightly season hens with salt and pepper. Place 1 lemon wedge and 1 sprig rosemary in cavity of each hen. Arrange in a large, heavy roasting pan, and arrange garlic cloves around hens. Roast in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together wine, chicken broth, and remaining 2 tablespoons of oil; pour over hens. Continue roasting about 25 minutes longer, or until hens are golden brown and juices run clear. Baste with pan juices every 10 minutes. Transfer hens to a platter, pouring any cavity juices into the roasting pan. Tent hens with aluminum foil to keep warm. Transfer pan juices and garlic cloves to a medium saucepan and boil until liquids reduce to a sauce consistency, about 6 minutes. Cut hens in half lengthwise and arrange on plates. Spoon sauce and garlic around hens. Garnish with rosemary sprigs, and serve.
