yoohoo, Richard, Joe... I made the brick fried chicken again last night but this time

Did they fit in one pan or did each hen get her own pan and brick? Did you do the balsamic sauce?

Enquiring minds want to know! I imagine half a game hen would make a very elegant dinner portion.

 
they fit very nicely in the cast iron, one at a time. we didn't have company so I just..

made the one for dinner and the other one for me the next day. I had too much going on to consider a sauce. just wrapped the brick in heavy foil, cut out the backbone and put salt in the hot skillet. I roasted potatoes like you did with the chicken. just purrfect!

 
Yum. Sounds like a perfect solution when cooking for two. Richard's sauce is just

a splash of wine or balsamic vinegar, after removing the rosemary, but not the garlic, from the pan. I thought the vinegar would be too strong but it was really good.

 
I love vinegar in a sauce too. the game hens were so easy to handle I'll probably

make them more often. they cook up so quickly and perfectly and plate beautifully. I did throw too much salt in the pan, next time I'll add just a little bit. I also love the garlic in the pan, to live for!

thanks for posting the recipe smileys/smile.gif
