Ingredients

• For the Hens:
• 6 cornish game hens
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper
• 1/4 cup margarine, melted
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 1/4 cup Granny M's Mandarin Orange Glaze

Preparation

Step 1

Place hens on a rack in a shallow baking pan. Tie legs with kitchen string if desired. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Combine butter, juice, Granny M's Mandarin Orange Glaze, and honey. Spoon mixture over hens. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees and juices run clear, basting every 15 minutes.

In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, Granny M's Orange Glaze, honey and vinegar. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth, stir into orange juice mixture. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Serve with hens.
