Zubereitung von Buca Di Beppo Cornish Game Hens With Spinach Sauce Or Chicken B
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the hens: Using poultry shears or a sharp knife, carefully split the back of each Cornish game hen open. Remove giblets and rinse hens thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Flatten the hens slightly, keeping them in one piece.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add the hens to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Marinate for at least 2 hours, turning occasionally.
- Place the marinated hens skin-side down on a large baking sheet.
- Spoon some of the remaining marinade over the hens.
- Bake for 45 minutes, then flip the hens skin-side up. Continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
- While the hens bake, prepare the spinach sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, bring 1 cup heavy cream to a simmer.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook until the cream reduces by half (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in 10 ounces frozen spinach (thawed and squeezed dry or use fresh spinach, wilted down), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, or until heated through.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons butter until melted and the sauce thickens slightly. For a smoother sauce, puree with an immersion blender or in a regular blender.
- Once the hens are cooked, remove from the oven and place on serving dishes. Top generously with the creamy spinach sauce.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
