Suggest a better descriptionTo prepare the herb rub: Combine the oregano, tarragon, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves and lavender flowers in a bowl. In a dry saute pan over med. heat, toast the herb mixture until fragrant. This will take only a few minutes. Do not burn. Return to the bowl. Add the fennel, coriander, pepper and orange and lemon peel and stir to combine. In a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle (I used the blender after smashing the fennel and coriander seeds with a mortar and pestle), coarsely grind the mixture. To use the herb rub, combine 5 parts of the mixture with 1 part kosher salt, 3 parts balsamic vinegar and 3 parts olive oil. Rinse the poultry and pat dry. Rub the herb rub liberally over the inside and outside of the birds. Allow to marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees (for game hens). Evenly divide the lemon slices and garlic, placing them in the cavity of each bird. Place them on a rack in a roasting pan, breast side down. Roast for 10 minutes. Turn the hens breast side up, reduce heat to 350 and continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes or until cooked through and juices run clear. Allow to rest 10 minutes before serving. I used two upright roasting racks for the chickens, even with the garlic and lemon inside. I cooked them at 400 for about 2 hours, 10 minutes. Posted to EAT-L Digest 25 Aug 96 From: Brenda Pittsley
