poussin
Very young chicken
A poussin is a young chicken slaughtered at four to six weeks old, smaller and more tender than a standard broiler.
The French term appears on menus and in culinary contexts where it sounds more appetizing than "baby chicken": Each guest received their own roasted poussin.
One poussin typically serves a single person.
