Instructions: *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.
