Cornish Hens are a gourmet dinner you can easily make at home. This recipe will be your secret weapon for any occasion you want to celebrate with a special, yet totally easy meal. There’s no reason to feel intimidated, this is something any home cook can make. Cranberry and orange juices are combined in a cran-orange glaze for the little bird, a fantastic combination.


Where to find? You can find Tyson® Premium Cornish Hens in the frozen meat section. They are sold in individually wrapped bags which is super convenient. Use the product locator to find a store near you that sells them. I bought mine at Smith’s.





 




How many people does it serve? You can serve up to 2 people per hen, but you can also serve an entire hen per person for the presentation. If serving two, use a sharp butcher knife to cut the hen into two halves and you’ll still have a beautiful presentation. They take 2-3 days to thaw in the fridge.
