BUCA DI BEPPO CORNISH GAME HENS WITH SPINACH SAUCE (OR CHICKEN B
(Galletto con Salsa di Spinaci) OOOOOOOOOOOOOh, is this yummy! It is a nice change from a plain baked chicken breast and is easy to make in quantities for a dinner party. I have made this with both Cornish Game Hens and with Bone-in, Skin-on Chicken breasts* and it turns out fabulous either way! Mangia!

Steps:
- To prepare the hens, split open the back of each Cornish game hen with a sharp knife or poultry shears.
- Remove giblets, rinse under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Flatten leaving hens in one piece.
- Place olive oil, crushed red pepper, rosemary, oregano and salt in a large bowl and mix well.
- Add hens to the mixture and marinate for approximately 2 hours, turning the hens from time to time.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the hens on a large sheet pan, skin side down. Spoon some of the marinade over the hens. Bake for approximately 45 minutes, turn the hens skin side up and continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the meat is done and skin is golden brown and crisp. (When using chicken breasts I usually cook at 375 degrees for 25 minutes skin side down, and 20 minutes skin side up until thermometer reaches 175 degrees in the biggest piece).
- Remove the hends from the oven, place on serving dishes and top with Spinach Sauce.
- To prepare Spinach Sauce bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Add the garlic.
- Cook until the cream is reduced by half.
- Add the spinach, salt and pepper, and heat through, cooking for approximately 5 minutes.
- Remove sauce from heat and add butter.
- Mix well until the sauce has thickened. If you prefer a smoother sauce, puree in a blender or food processor.
- **Try draining the frozen spinach in a salad spinner. It works fabulously!

Steps:

- Rub spice mixture all over hens; place hens in large roasting pan. Sprinkle hens inside and out with salt and pepper. Tie legs together to hold shape. Arrange carrots in pan around hens. Sprinkle carrots with salt and pepper. Roast 30 minutes. Add stock to roasting pan. Roast hens until juices run clear when thickest part of thigh is pierced and carrots are tender, basting hens occasionally with pan juices, about 35 minutes longer. Place 1 hen on each of 4 plates. Arrange carrots alongside. Spoon warm Orange-Honey Sauce over and serve.

Steps:
- 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.
