Air Fry Cornish Hens

 

Ingredients:

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

 salt and pepper, to taste

2 cornish hens (about 1 or 1.5 Lb. each)

OLive Oil Cooking spray

 

Directions:

Preheat your Air Fryer at 350.

In a small bowl combine the smoked paprika with garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Spray olive oil over the Cornish hens, then rub seasons on skin so they’re well coated.

Place the Cornish hens in the Air Fryer basket, breast side up and air fry for 20 minutes.

Flip, and cook for 20 more minutes or until the thickest part of the breast is 165 when tested with a digital thermometer.

Flip again (breast side up) and air fry for 5 more minutes to get crispy skin.

Using tongs, remove hens from the air fryer onto a plate, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing or serving. Enjoy!
