A Cornish hen is a food made from a small chicken of Earth. Leonard McCoy attempted to convince James Kirk to join him for a Cornish hen dinner while Kirk was on leave in the year 2267, but Kirk was more interested in being alone at the Kirk family residence in Riverside, Iowa. (TOS novel: Final Frontier) This dish, served lime-glazed, was one of many prepared in the food processor units aboard the USS Enterprise. (TOS reference: Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise)
