Glazed Turkey and Pea Pods

Submitted by ElizabethKnicely

"From my Betty Crocker One-Dish Main Meals cookbook. Stir-fries make good use of turkey breast slices, which are easily cut into strips of pieces. A 6-ounce package of frozen Chinese pea pods, thawed, can be substituted for the fresh pea pods; stir them in with the turkey."
