   4                    Cornish game hens
   4                    Tangerines, peeled,
                        -seeded, & chopped
   1       c            Fresh squeezed orange juice
     1/4   c            Zinfandel wine
   1       t            Or salt to taste
   4       tb           Butter
     1/4   c            Minced onion
     1/4   c            Mushrooms chopped
   4       tb           Pecans chopped
   1       t            Soy sauce
   1                    Clove garlic minced
   1       tb           * honey

  *NOTE: optional Rinse hens and pat dry. Mix wine, soy sauce, salt,
  honey & orange juice together. Rub 1 Tblpsn butter inside each hen.
  Sprinkle the cavity with salt. Mix the onion, garlic, pecans,
  mushrooms, & tangerines together. Stuff each hen with this mixture.
  Heat the liquid mixture until it begins to boil. Turn off & let cool
  for 5 minutes. Pour 2 Tblspns of this into each hen. Preheat oven to
  325 degrees F then bake hens for 45 minutes. Be sure to baste every
  10 minutes with the liquid mixture. Test birds...if not done....cook
  until done. **NOTE** I have used this same thing on chickens too as
  well Guinea hens. All came out well as did the quail I used it with.
