Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 Cornish game hens, giblets removed
3 tablespoons garlic and herb seasoning (such as McCormick®), divided
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, divided
1 tablespoon butter, melted
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line the inside of a roasting pan with aluminum foil.
  • Place hens, breast-side up, in the prepared roasting pan.
  • Mix 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning with 1 package cream cheese in a bowl. Stuff cream cheese mixture in 1 hen. Repeat with 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning and remaining 1 package cream cheese; stuff the second hen.
  • Brush hens with melted butter; sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning. Season with salt. Cover hens with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove aluminum foil and bake until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
