Our Comments:

A Cornish game hen, really doesn't have anything to do with game, so don't bother looking over there. (We recently found this out.)

It's actually a young chicken, specially bred to mature quickly. And, even though it is called a 'hen', it can be either a male or a female.

Wikipedia has a really light article about game hens. Click here to go there.

And, finally, we actually have a category for Cornish Hen recipes on our Just Chicken Recipes site.
