I use uncooked thighs, a carrot, an onion, and some celery and simmer in chicken stock for an hour to "beef up" the chicken flavor. Strain. Then toss in the noodles for 30 minutes, shred the chicken, and go to town. [Reply]
First time making a Cornish Game Hen and I prepared it the same way I do my turkey.
Bathe in Vinegar
Separate the skin from the meat on the breast and legs
Rub lemon juice all over the breast and leg meat
Rub coarse salt all over the breast and leg meat
Make a paste from olive oil, a shit ton of garlic, oregano, pepper, Goya adobo, and poultry seasoning and rub it all over the bird (on the outside of the skin).
From there... prepare your bird as you normally would.
I've never seen a bird prepared WITHOUT the skin as the fat and flavor add so much value to the bird. In theory it would seem to help dry the bird out.
