Tangerine Hens Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

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

Recipe 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. Origin: Don Houston's kitchen...circa 1970-something

NANCY O'BRION NOTES: I included this because IT gave me good practice to
work a round a ricepe to make it work for ME and MINE!(very big smile) What
I figure the food exchange by hotkey it (y)ield and then say yes the next
question( just be sure that you write or remember what the orginally
serving was in this case it was 4 serving) I would make this about 1 meat
exchange(depending on what I use of poulty) and 1 fruit (depanding how big
tangerine because of the orange juice) and 1 fat exchange. Make it work!!!!
For it it will not be the same old thing!

Servings: 4

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?”

~ Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772)
