1-1/4
pounds turkey tenderloins, cut into 3/4-inch pieces

3

Preparation:
1.
Bring broth to a boil in large saucepan. Add onion; reduce heat and simmer 3 minutes. Add turkey; return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 7 to 9 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink. With slotted spoon, transfer turkey to 13X9-inch baking dish.

With slotted spoon remove vegetables to colander set over bowl; reserve broth. Transfer vegetables to baking dish with turkey.

3.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Blend 1/3 cup milk and cornstarch in small bowl until smooth; set aside. Add enough additional milk to reserved broth to equal 3 cups. Heat in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in cornstarch mixture, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil. Boil 1 minute; remove from heat. Pour over turkey-vegetable mixture in baking dish.

Roll out crescent roll dough and separate at perforations; arrange dough pieces decoratively over top of turkey-vegetable mixture. Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
