Directions
1.
For filling, in a wok or 12-inch skillet cook turkey, onion, and garlic until turkey is brown and onion is tender. Drain fat. Place turkey mixture in a very large bowl.
2.
In the same wok or skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the peanut or cooking oil; stir-fry broccoli slaw for 2 minutes. Stir broccoli slaw, the 1/3 cup stir-fry sauce, five-spice powder, garlic pepper, and celery salt into meat mixture. Stir in shredded cheese.
3.
Meanwhile, wrap tortillas in foil. Heat in a 350 degree F oven for 10 minutes to soften.
4.
Spoon about 3/4 cup meat filling onto each tortilla just below the center. Fold bottom edge of each tortilla up and over filling. Fold in opposite sides just until they meet. Roll up. Secure with wooden toothpicks.
5.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil in the wok. Cook burritos, 3 or 4 at a time, over medium heat about 4 minutes or until golden, turning once. Drain on paper towels. Keep warm in a 300 degree F oven. Fry remaining burritos, adding more oil as needed. Remove and discard toothpicks. If desired, serve with additional sauce. Makes 5 main dish servings or 10 appetizer servings.
