Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the Cornish hen generously with salt and Aleppo pepper.
In a small heavy-bottomed oven-proof pot, sear the hen over medium-high heat until the skin is deeply golden and crackles. Remove hen, then add the aromatics (Spanish style riced cauliflower mix) to the pan to pick up the drippings.
Add the fava beans and barley, stirring for 2 minutes until fragrant and coated.
Nestle the hen back into the pan, cover, and transfer to the oven. Braise for 25 minutes or until the meat is tender and the juices run clear.
Remove the lid for the final 5 minutes to crisp the skin.
Plating: Place the hen over the bed of braised barley and cauliflower. Spoon the sauce and fava beans around the dish, finishing with a final sprinkle of Aleppo pepper for a vibrant, smoky heat.
