Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need 4 Cornish hens, 4 cups of vegetables of your choice (we recommend carrots, potatoes, and onions, but you can use whatever you have on hand), 1 cup of chicken broth, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of fresh herbs of your choice (we recommend thyme, rosemary, and parsley).
Instructions
To begin, start by preheating your slow cooker to low. Then, place the Cornish hens in the bottom of the slow cooker, and add the vegetables on top. Next, pour the chicken broth over the top of the hens and vegetables. Drizzle the olive oil over the top, and season with the salt and pepper.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours. After the cooking time is up, remove the lid and check to make sure the hens are cooked through. If not, cover and continue cooking for an additional 30 minutes or until the hens are cooked through.
Once the hens are cooked through, remove them from the slow cooker and let them rest for 5 minutes. Then, remove the vegetables from the slow cooker and transfer them to a serving dish. Finally, pour the cooking liquid from the slow cooker over the vegetables and serve with the hens.
Equipment
For this recipe, you will need a slow cooker and any other kitchen equipment you need to prepare the ingredients.
