Delightful Cornish Hens

Delightful Cornish Hens
  • 1 green bell pepper, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, minced
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro, or more to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon adobo seasoning
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 onions, peeled
  • 2 Cornish game hens
  • 2 tablespoons butter


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  2. Mix green bell pepper, red bell pepper, cilantro, olive oil, sazon seasoning, onion powder, adobo seasoning, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl. Place 1 clove garlic and 1 onion into the cavity of each hen. Spread seasoning-oil mixture with your hands over the entire outer surface of each hen. Arrange hens on prepared baking sheet; top each with 1 tablespoon butter.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
