I found it in a magazine and it also works great for roasted chicken.

6 cornish hens or one large roasting chicken
1 cup lemon juice
3/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1-1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, divided
1-1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt, divided
1-1/8 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Place hens or chicken in a large roasting pan.
In a bowl combine lemon juice, butter, paprika, and 1 teaspoon each of thyme, seasoned salt, and garlic powder.
Pour half over chicken or hens.
Set the remaining mixture aside for basting.
Combine salt, pepper, and remaining thyme, seasoned salt and garlic powder. Sprinkle over hens.

Bake uncovered at 375 for 30 mins. Baste with reserved lemon juice mixture.
Bake 30 minutes longer, basting occasionally, or untill the meat is tender and juices run clear.
