FOIL-WRAPPED GINGER CHICKEN
The brown sugar and soy sauce cook down creating a sticky sauce on these cute little chicken packets. From Sunset April 2008. These should be made at least an hour ahead of time to allow time to marinate.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, dark soy sauce, and ginger. Add chicken, toss to coat, cover, and chill for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375°. Lay out 8 pieces of aluminum foil, 6 to 8 inches long each. Put 1/8 of the marinated chicken in the middle of each. Top chicken with green onions and sprinkle with pepper. Fold 1 side of foil over the chicken to cover it, fold opposite side of foil over first fold, and then fold in each end once to seal and create a little packet.
- Lay packets on a foil- or parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet (packets will leak while cooking, and the marinade is difficult to clean up once it cooks onto a pan). Bake until chicken is cooked through and marinade is reduced and starting to caramelize in each packet, 45 to 60 minutes. Serve hot or warm.

Steps:
- Whisk together the chili powder, sugar, chipotle powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl to make a dry spice rub. Place the wings in a large bowl, toss with the oil, and sprinkle with the dry spice rub. Toss the wings to evenly coat, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
- Prepare a grill for high heat.
- Tear off four 18-by-18-inch sheets of heavy duty non-stick aluminum foil. Remove the wings from the bowl, making sure to leave any excess liquid behind. Divide the wings among the foil pieces, centering them on each piece in a single layer. Sprinkle the wings with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Bring two opposite ends of the foil together and fold twice to seal, then fold in the other sides to create leak-proof packets. Grill over high heat, turning once, until the wings are cooked through, about 25 minutes. Carefully open the packets (hot steam will escape). Scatter the cilantro over the tops and serve with the lime wedges.

Steps:
- Cut chicken into 1-inch-square pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine cornstarch, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sugar, cilantro, ginger and garlic. Add chicken and toss to coat. Refrigerate, covered, at least 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Fold each piece of foil in half twice to make a 6-inch square. Place a spoonful of chicken in the center of each piece of foil, dividing it equally. Fold foil squares on the diagonal; fold edges to seal. Place on a nonstick baking sheet and bake 20 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink in the center.
ASIAN STYLE PAPER WRAPPED CHICKEN
Paper-wrapped chicken like in a pu pu platter. It is called 'Paper Wrapped' although it is actually wrapped in aluminum foil. This is one of the best appetizers I have ever had at an Asian restaurant and this is my attempt to duplicate it. It goes very well on the pu pu platter.

Steps:
- Mix soy sauce, green onion, hoisin sauce, vegetable oil, white wine, cornstarch, sugar, ginger, garlic, five-spice powder, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Stir chicken cubes into the sauce to coat; marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
- Place 1 to 2 chicken cubes onto a square of aluminum foil and fold the foil diagonally to make a triangle. Fold the edges over tightly several times, about 1/4 inch per fold, squeezing as much air as possible out of the packet. Repeat with remaining ingredients and foil.
- Pour 1 cup peanut oil, or as needed, into a heavy skillet (such as a cast-iron pan) to a depth of 1/2 inch; heat over medium heat until oil is shimmering.
- Gently lay the chicken packets, working in batches if necessary, into the hot oil and cook until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear (open a test packet to be sure), about 5 minutes per side. Drain packets on paper towels. Serve chicken in foil wrappers and let diners unwrap their own.

FOIL-WRAPPED TERIYAKI CHICKEN WITH SCALLIONS AND LEMON
A foil-wrapped "bake and serve" dinner is like a small, sealed envelope that allows the chicken to steam in its own flavorful juices. It requires very little fat for cooking and the flavors are very clean. The packets can be assembled in advance and cooked just before serving. In this recipe, we focus on a tasty kicked-up teriyaki sauce to bring the chicken and vegetables to life. I make these in the morning and store them in the fridge. There's nothing like getting home after a long day and just baking and serving dinner!

Steps:
- Get ready: Arrange 2 shelves in the upper and lower middle areas of the oven at a fair distance from one another; the foil-enveloped chicken will need some room to puff and expand as it cooks. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Make the teriyaki: In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, teriyaki sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, mustard and black pepper.
- Wrap the chicken and vegetables: Spread two 12-inch layers of tinfoil on a flat surface. Fold each piece of foil in half. Open the foil at the seam and use 1 tablespoon of the butter to grease the middle of each. Place the scallions, zucchini and lemon slices in the middle of each. Season the chicken with salt on both sides. Place the chicken in the middle on top of the vegetables. Top with more lemon slices and scallions.
- Fold the two sides of each foil towards the chicken so it is like a large envelope with sealed sides and only the top part is open. There should be enough room left around the sides to allow for the steam to build up as it cooks, like a loose envelope around it. Spoon half of the teriyaki sauce in each of the packets. Close the tops and fold them down 3 to 4 times to ensure they're closed, leaving a little room between the chicken and the foil.
- Cook and serve: Place the chicken on a baking sheet, place in the lower rack of the oven and cook, undisturbed, until the "envelopes" begin to puff, 22 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and poke a thermometer in the center of the chicken breasts to assure they are cooked; they should register 165 degrees F. If not, cook a few minutes more. Remove from the oven, cut open the foil packets and dig in.
FOIL WRAPPED CHICKEN - BAKED OR FRIED
The secret of this popular dish lies in the marinade, which, when cooking, caramelizes the chicken and other ingredients, joining them together. When wrapping the chicken, it is customary to add a few other ingredients as a type of garnish. Cilantro, Chinese dried mushrooms, Chinese sausages (you can substitute smoked ham), and/or green onions are all used. When it comes time to cook, the garnish and chicken pieces are wrapped envelope style in square packets and (normally) deep-fried. Baking is another option; see instructions in the final step. Cooking time is normally about three to four minutes - long enough for the chicken to cook through but not for the paper to blacken. (This is for five to six inch squares - the cooking time will be longer if you are working with a recipe that calls for larger packets.) Stir the pieces lightly with chopsticks a few times while deep-frying. Drain the cooked chicken packets on paper towels. This recipe can be prepared ahead up to the deep-frying or baking stage, then frozen. Time does not include 1 hour marination. Recipe courtesy Rhonda Parkinson.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken into coarse mince and playfully spank it with a mallet to tenderize. Say, "You've been a naughty little chicken!".
- Mix the marinade ingredients together, add chicken, and refrigerate for one hour. At the 45 minute mark, add the mushrooms and scallions.
- Cut paper or foil pieces into 6-inch squares.
- Paper-wrapped chicken is normally wrapped envelope style. Take a square of paper and lay it out in front of you. Add 2 of the chicken slices, 1 slice of mushroom, 2 slices of green onion and a coriander sprig (if desired) in the middle, being sure to keep the filling in the center and not near the edges.
- Bring the bottom flap up over the chicken. Fold the right side over toward the middle, then the left side, so that one is overlapping the other. Fold the top flap down, tucking it inside the opening to seal the package. It is very important to make sure the packets are well sealed so that no oil seeps inches.
- If using foil, fold in half diagonally to form a triangle, then crimp the open edges together.
- DEEP FRYING METHOD: Heat wok and add oil for deep-frying.
- When the oil is ready, slide the packages in, about 6 at a time so as not to overcrowd the wok. Deep-fry the packets, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Drain on paper towels. Continue deep-frying the rest of the packets.
- Serve the chicken packets on a large platter, garnished with greens if desired. Guests can open the packets with either chopsticks or their fingers, but be careful as they're hot inside.
- OVEN METHOD: Bake in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius) oven for 18 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
