2 rock cornish game hens
2 tbsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp lemon pepper
2 tbsp garlic powder
2 tbsp cajun seasoning
1 tsp black pepper
1 cup italian salad dressing
3 tbsp melted butter/margarine

Wash hens. Plase breast side up in a roasting pan. Mix all ingredients except butter. Brush hens with mixture. Cover pan with aluminum foil. Cook in the oven at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes. Brush with melted butter and raise temparature to 400 degrees. Cook for about 10 more minutes. 


I usually serve with green beans and a pasta dish like macaroni and cheese.
