Forge, TN. I\u2019ve been to this dinner\/show attraction no less than 25 times in my life\u2026and I\u2019d go 25 more! They\u2019ve had the same menu all these years, and the dixie chicken has always been my favorite part. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve tried lots of different seasonings, marinades and brines, and this recipe is as close as I can get without having the exact recipe. In true Stampede fashion, you gotta eat Dolly Parton's chicken with your fingers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love going to Dolly's Stampede so much that I've even created additional recipes from the menu so you can bring all the dishes home with you!

Brining is an important technique for making chicken or Cornish hens more more moist and tender when roasted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The salt in the brine helps to break down some of the fibers in the chicken and the wet brine allows the chicken to absorb more moisture before it bakes. It's the same method as brining a turkey before Thanksgiving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the brining is finished, be sure to pat the Cornish hen very dry on the outside with paper towels. The skin needs to be very dry to be able to get browned and crispy in the oven. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ingredients_in_Dixie_Stampede_Chicken\"><\/span>Ingredients in Dixie Stampede Chicken <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><strong><em>Ingredient Amounts Listed in the Recipe Card Below<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"A Cornish game hen.\" class=\"wp-image-9345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-500x500.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-720x720.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-360x360.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-180x180.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E-96x96.jpeg 96w, https:\/\/www.dinnerin321.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ED2F0676-C32F-474F-8AB1-29C43CDF528E.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cornish Game Hens<\/strong>: A variety of broiler chicken, Cornish game hens are no more than 2 pounds.

They are a crossbreed between Cornish chickens and White Plymouth Rock chickens.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1693430967512\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How should I thaw Cornish game hens before roasting? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The best way to thaw Cornish game hens is to transfer them from the freezer to the refrigerator and allow them to thaw slowly. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1693430981104\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Should I truss the Cornish game hens before roasting? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Trussing the Cornish game hens is not necessary, but it can help maintain their shape. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1693431002264\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How can I tell if the Cornish game hens are cooked through? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The most reliable way to determine if they're fully cooked is by using a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the bird, avoiding contact with bones, and ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 165\u00b0F (74\u00b0C).<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1693431023284\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Are there any alternative cooking methods with these hens?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, besides roasting, you can also grill, broil, or even sous vide.
