Como fazer Spice Roasted Cornish Hens With Cucumber Yogurt Sauce
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Position rack in the upper third of the oven.
- Rinse the Cornish hens and pat them dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, combine the cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Place the Cornish hens on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Brush each hen generously with olive oil.
- Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the hens.
- Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
- While the hens are roasting, prepare the cucumber yogurt sauce: Combine the cucumber, yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, and mint in a food processor.
- Blend until almost smooth, leaving some texture if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the Cornish hens are cooked, let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve the hens immediately with a generous dollop of the cucumber yogurt sauce.
