For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding thinly sliced onions, bell peppers, or even a few shiitake mushrooms to the marinade. Ensure the foil packets are tightly sealed to prevent oil from seeping in during frying. Serve immediately after frying for the best texture and flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes. (5 minutes)
02
StepAdd the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. (2 minutes)
03
StepCover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. (3-12 hours)
04
StepRemove the chicken from the refrigerator. Place a marinated chicken piece in the center of a foil square. (5 minutes)
05
StepFold the foil square tightly over the chicken in a triangular shape. Fold the open edges over the chicken to enclose completely, pressing firmly to seal. Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces. Discard the marinade. (20 minutes)
06
StepHeat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (10 minutes)
07
StepCarefully add the foil packets to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary, until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 2 to 4 minutes per batch. (15 minutes)
08
StepRemove the fried packets and drain on paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving. (5 minutes)
