Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°.
- Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil; set a baking rack in each pan.
- Using poultry shears or a sharp chef's knife, cut along both sides of each hen's backbone and discard.
- Open the birds up and turn skin side up, pressing lightly on the breastbones to flatten them a bit.
- Arrange 3 hens on each baking rack, skin side up, and season liberally with salt and pepper.
- Mix the orange juice concentrate, balsamic vinegar, and oil together; pour evenly over the hens, and sprinkle with rosemary.
- Roast hens for 15 minutes at 425°, then decrease heat to 375° and roast for 30 minutes more, OR until the juices run clear (I'd check doneness with an instant read thermometer).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Put 6 tablespoons of the butter in a mixing bowl. Put the pecan meats into the container of an electric blender or spice mill and grind until fine. Do not grind too much, or you will make a paste. Add the pecans to the 6 tablespoons of butter. Add the Cognac, mustard, salt and pepper, and blend well with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula.
- Insert the fingers underneath the skin of the breast and thighs of each hen. Make a fairly deep cavity to hold the stuffing. Spoon an equal portion of the pecan mixture beneath the skin of each hen, distributing the mixture evenly throughout the cavity. It is best if you truss the hens with string.
- Sprinkle the hens with salt and pepper. Arrange the hens breast-side-up on a baking dish. Brush each with a tablespoon of oil. Place the hens in the oven, and bake 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, drain the potatoes, and cut them into very thin slices. There should be about 5 cups. Put the slices in a colander and run them under very hot tap water. Pat dry, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Scatter the potato slices and the necks of the hens around the birds. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and continue baking 10 minutes, basting occasionally. Stir the potatoes so that they bake evenly. Turn the hens breast-side-down, and continue baking 20 minutes. Turn the hens breast-side-up and continue baking 10 minutes.
- Untruss the hens, and cut them in half lengthwise. Serve the potatoes sprinkled with parsley. Broccoli with tomatoes is a good accompaniment.

ORANGE PECAN CORNISH HENS
I so adore the Cornish Hens and love preparing them. They cook up fast and look elegant for dinner. This recipe was so delicious especially if you love orange marmalade and pecans it is a must for you. The glaze is easy to make & tastes so yummy. These hens go well with some rice but would work great with other sides too. (Now, you will notice a little Hillbilly shining through on this one cause I didn't have any twine available so I used two twisty ties for the back legs and toothpicks for the front). LOL Hope you enjoy & this comes from my Gooseberry Patch Christmas book

Steps:
- Spread moderate amount of butter equally over hens; (I used about a 1/2 tbsp on each.) season with salt and pepper. Tie ends of legs together, if desired, and place on a lightly greased rack in a roasting pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour or until a meat thermometer inserted into meaty part of thight registers 180 degrees.
- In a saucepan, blend together remaining (1 - 2 tbsp) butter, marmalade and orange juice; bring to a boil. In a bowl, blend together a small amount of cornstarch and water, slowly adding remaining cornstarch until mixture thickens. Slowly add cornstarch mixture to marmalade mixture, stirring constantly; add pecans.
- Place hens in a greased jelly roll pan. Pour glaze over chicken and bake for 10 more minutes or until glaze begins to turn golden. Garnish with orange slices. Serves 4 Serve over wild or white rice; or some buttered noodles would be yummy too
