- Roast hens for appx 25 minutes at 450.
- Reduce temp to 350 and pour wine, broth and remaining oil over hens.
- Continue to cook for about 25 minutes (or until juice from thickest part runs clear) Be sure to baste about every 10 minutes in this final cooking time.
- Remove hens from pan and pour remaining juices as well as any juices from the cavities into medium saucepan Boil juices about 6 to 8 minutes (or until desired consistency).
- Arrange hens on plates and spoon sauce and garlic over and around each, add additional rosemary as a garnish if you like.
- The 4-8 servings is that you can cut the hens in half to double the servings.
- This goes very well with a light salad and rice pilaf (and of course a glass of wine).
