Well the storm has arrived. My feet are on fire, my hands are not cooperating, I have poofed up like a puffer and my body basically is having a toddler tantrum.

I’m hungry!
No, you’re not…
I’m thirsty!
No, you’re not!
I’m tired…
Then go to bed….
NO! I’m not sleepy and you can’t make me…
I have to peeeee!
Then go pee……
I don’t want to get up….
Oh for heavens sake…

🐦 INSTANT POT CORNISH HEN
▪️ Cornish Hen (1.5lb)
▪️ Rosemary
▪️ Sage
▪️ Lemon
▪️ Chicken Stock
▪️ Olive Oil
▪️ Salt/Pepper
▪️ Chili Powder
Stuffed the cavity with the herbs and lemon and set on a low trivet stand with 1½c of the previous stock I had made. Rubbed oil on the top only, seasoned with salt / pepper and chili powder – season any way you like. It’s good with Italian Seasoning or even a dry ranch mix.

DRY RANCH MIX

🌀 Cooked in
@mychefiq 6Q Smart Cooker
THAWED: Cook 20min on Pressure + Quick Release
FROZEN: Cook 35min on Pressure + Quick Release
My bird was somewhat thawed so I split the difference and did 25min.

Once finished and cool enough to handle, move to a baking tray and broil (or air fry) for 5min to crisp the skin.

I stripped the meat off once cool and used the carcass in some Lemon & Herb Poultry Bone Broth (it will be in tomorrow’s post once it’s finished)
