Ingredients

  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken (breast or thigh) cut into bite-size pieces
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 (1-inch) chunks of fresh ginger, pressed through a garlic press
  • 5 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • Pinch of sugar
  • Dash of sesame oil

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine chicken with rest of ingredients. Stir well, cover and let marinate in refrigerator 2-3 hours.

  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take a roll of 12-inch-wide aluminum foil, cut off a 6-inch lenth of foil, and cut in half. This will give you two 6-inch square pieces. Continue to cut more squares like this from the roll of foil.

  3. Place a heaping teaspoon or so of chicken mixture in the middle of a foil square. Fold in half diagonally to create a triangle. Fold the edge of each open side of the triangle over three times to seal well. Flip back each bottom corner.

  4. Place filled foil tiangles on baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes, and serve. Everyone helps themselves to some of the triangles at the table. Open each bundle by undoing hte folded edges, or by using a fork to pierce the center.
