Remove the turkey from the plastic and sprinkle with the thyme, black pepper and salt (if using).
Melt the margarine or butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey for 2 minutes per side, or until tender and cooked through. (Do not overcook.) Cover and set aside.
In a 4-cup glass measure, mix the oil, onions, green peppers and garlic. Cover with a piece of wax paper. Microwave on high power for a total of 3 to 4 minutes, or until the vegetables are almost tender; stop and stir after 2 minutes.
Stir in the ketchup, water, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, mustard and cloves. Cover and microwave for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Pour the sauce over the turkey in the skillet. Stir until the turkey is coated Spoon the turkey mixture over the English muffin halves.
