CORNISH HENS WITH RICE PILAF
A recipe we've enjoyed for years. All you need is a salad and you've got a great meal. Note that one bird serves two people. We are old dudes, so if you have younger, heartier appetites you may want to adjust the recipe accordingly----both the hens and the pilaf.

CORNISH GAME HENS AND RICE BAKE
This recipe makes a nice dinner and is from The Pillsbury Family Kitchens' Cookbook. I use 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) chicken broth and enough water to make 2 cups (and heat it in microwave) in place of water and bouillon cubes. This recipe can also be used with quartered or cut up frying chicken. I have only made it with the cornish hens.
