Baked Cornish Hens for Dinner Cornish hens make a delightful company dinner. Not only does their appearance say "special", but the ease of preparation won't have you spending lots of time in the kitchen. And the juiciness and flavor of these little hens just cannot be beat. They are definitely a welcome change of pace from the usual chicken entrée. Includes the fantastic side dish, Rice with Garlic & Pine Nuts.
