Orange Turkey (Leftover Turkey Breast) and Pea Pods [I Like To Share Recipes]
(You can saute turkey or chicken tenderloins if you prefer fresh instead of leftoever turkey).
2 cups sweet orange juice. If the orange juice is sour, (tastes like grapefruit), add 1 packed tablespoon brown sugar. 2 cups brown rice, prepared. Boil in bag brown rice only takes about 20 minutes. 8 oz fresh pea pods 1 lb cooked turkey breast, sliced and then cut into lengths. (If using raw turkey tenderloins or chicken tenderloins, cut into strips, and saute in a separate pan till just cooked). 2 level tablespoons cornstarch 2 tablespoons or more garlic powder 1 tsp powdered ginger 2 tablespoons double black soy sauce. One small pinch of red pepper flakes 1/2 cup water.
Pour the orange juice into a large skillet. In a measuring cup, put the 1/2 cup of water, the garlic powder, the ginger and the cornstarch and whip all together with a fork until blended.
Add the spice/cornstarch mixture, the red pepper flakes, and the double black soy sauce to the orange juice in the skillet. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil on low heat, stirring constantly, just till thickened. Then add the pea pods and the turkey strips. Stir to cover pea pods and turkey strips with the sauce. Cover the skillet, and cook for 10 minutes on lowest possible heat.
@Experienced33 It tasted like Chinese food! Unfortunately the orange juice I have appears to be half grapefruit juice...very sour...so unless you have naturally sweet orange juice, you might have to add at least a teaspoon, maybe more, of brown sugar.
