Rinse hen under cold running water inside and out, pat dry, then divide into 6 parts. Season with salt and pepper. Peel onion and garlic and finely chop. Heat clarified butter in a pan and fry hen over medium heat on all sides until skin is golden yellow, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Simmer over low heat for 25–30 minutes. Cut peppers in half. Remove stems, seeds and ribs and cut flesh into 1 cm (approximately 1/2-inch) cubes. Add to pot for final 20 minutes cook time. Arrange meat on a preheated platter and keep warm. Remove lemon zest from sauce.
Stir in sour cream until smooth and heat. Sauce must not boil. Season to taste. Serve the hen with sauce on top or on the side. Before serving, sprinkle with parsley. Serve with tagliatelle.
