Steps:
- Combine the wine, honey, mint and sage in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Peel the pomegranates and carefully remove the seeds by breaking the pomegranates into sections.
- Place the pomegranate seeds and the quails in the wine mixture. Let marinate in the refrigerator, 2 to 4 hours.
- Remove the quails from the marinade and pat dry. Drain the seeds out of the marinade. Reserve 1/3 cup of the seeds and stuff the quails with the rest. Reserve the marinade.
- Truss the quails and wrap each in two slices of pancetta.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the lard or oil and quickly brown the quails. Place them in the oven and bake 6 to 8 minutes.
- Remove the quails from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Deglaze the pan with the reserved marinade over high heat, stir in the reserved pomegranate seeds, pour over the quails and serve.
