Directions to make Apricot Turkey

Step 1:Combine brown rice vinegar, molasses, and grated onion. Add turkey cubes; toss to coat turkey with marinade. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Step 2:Drain turkey, reserving marinade. Add oil to heavy nonstick skillet, set on medium heat, and brown a few turkey cubes and the garlic at a time (if you crowd the pan, the meat will steam, not brown). Put browned turkey in a large casserole.
Step 3:Combine reserved marinade, white grape juice, water, lemon juice, and grated ginger; pour over turkey. Stir in apricot slivers and cover. Bake at 325 F. for 30 minutes.
Step 4:Turkey should be tender. Stir in cilantro. Serve over steamed rice.
