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).
- Let the hens rest for 5 minutes before serving.

[email protected]I made this dish and it was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think next time I'll use less balsamic vinegar.
